It was around 8 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it had not given up on pouring down rain! Ryan and I were resting going over the weekend's tennis rankings, waiting for the 6th fuel drain for the day to arrive. Inevitably we received a phone call from a young lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the Esso filling station in Leeming Bar and put petrol in a diesel Peugeot hire car in error. She was rather affected it seemed, stating "I can not believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I totally did not remember that I was using a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to fret, and also that things like this sadly happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle to a protected position and, because it was no more than a few miles away from us, we could reach the customer right away. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could get back to the Travelodge she was residing in. Although we got fairly wet, it was all worth it to watch her drive away satisfied and not so stressed. A job in North Yorkshire well done in my books!

AdBlue In Diesel
All over North Yorkshire we have noticed increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent a result of people not knowing the right way to use it (please note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to one another on the automobile.
Now, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.
If you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely don't start up the vehicle - not even to shift it from the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you may probably have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally a significant condition to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel is likely to result in idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both cases pretty simply.
Be aware that so long as the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will likely be thoroughly wet and unusable.
Marine Fuel Drains
In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}
Waste Fuel Removal
Got a fuel reservoir sitting in the rear of your premises containing unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and business premises in North Yorkshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some drums in a shed, providing we can get to it, we can drain it for you.

We will help to fill up the car in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) and refill your car or truck. They are also able to take care of any of the standard issues which might go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
