Services We Give:

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue In Diesel

In North Yorkshire we are encountering more and more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a result of motorists not being aware of the way to work with it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Well, what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it right away. And obviously don't start the motor - not even to shift it into a parking area. In cases where you did start the car you would probably have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious issue to address in a car - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel will trigger idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both situations fairly quickly.

Be aware however that so long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured near to a car parking spot we should be able to access the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank laying at the rear of your premises containing out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and business premises in North Yorkshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some containers in a shed, provided that we can reach it, we can empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Keldholme (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a full North Yorkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to fill up the car in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at cost) and fill up your car or truck. They are also able to fix the normal problems which may go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Keldholme - Keldholme Fuel Rescue

A person rang us from his residence on a close in Keldholme. He explained, "My car (a Kia) is not starting and is producing terrible noises when I turn the key." He admitted that he put the wrong fuel in his diesel car but then imagined he would solve the problem by putting extra Diesel on top. We arrived promptly, carried out the drain and filled him up once more with untainted Diesel. He told us that he'd be absolutely sure to tell people not to fill up on top of the incorrect fuel but to have it cleaned out immediately.
