It was about 8 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were guaranteed a dry night, it hadn't stopped pouring! Paul and I were relaxing going over the weekend's tennis results, at the ready for the sixth job of the day to arrive. Finally we had the call from a lady on a business trip who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling station in Swallownest and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Mercedes rental in error. The unfortunate lady was somewhat affected apparently, stating "I still can't believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot that I was using a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to fret, and that these things often happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a secure area and, since it was just a short distance off from us, we were able to find the customer rather quickly. The wrong fuel was drained so she could once again go back to the hotel she was lodging at. Even though we got extremely drenched, it was all rewarding to watch her drive home satisfied and not so anxious. Yet another fuel drain in South Yorkshire well done in my opinion!

Below are the top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around South Yorkshire we are discovering increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree stemming from drivers not being aware of the right way to to make use of (note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to each other on the car.

So, exactly what is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? As AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If you find you put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it at once. And of course don't crank the car - not even to move it into a parking place. In cases where you have started the vehicle you would likely need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant situation to address in an automobile - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in the petrol or diesel will likely trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain when compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both situations quite swiftly.

Bear in mind however that if ever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will likely be totally wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to an automobile parking bay we can gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir sitting in the rear of your premises containing unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and industrial premises in South Yorkshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even a few containers in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to get to it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Swallownest (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a full South Yorkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill your car if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) and fill up the car. They are also able to deal with the normal problems which can accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, as well as dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Swallownest - Swallownest Petrol in Diesel

A customer phoned us from his residence on a street in Swallownest. He said, "My vehicle (a Nissan) is not starting and is generating dreadful noises when I turn the ignition." He confessed that he put petrol in his diesel vehicle but then believed he would solve the problem by putting additional Diesel on top. We were on scene quickly, performed the drain and filled it up again with clean Diesel. He said that he'd be sure to educate people not to fill up over the wrong fuel but to get it drained right away.
