It was around eight pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry evening, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ray and I were sitting discussing the recent rugby, waiting around for the 8th telephone call for the day to come in. Before long we got the phone call from a young lady on a business excursion who had gone to the Tesco petrol garage in Oakes and put petrol in a diesel MG rental. The unfortunate lady was very affected it seemed, crying "I still cannot believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I had didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to worry, also that things like this sadly do happen.

Our Services:

Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we offer.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout West Yorkshire we have found increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent stemming from people not being aware of the way to work with it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to each other on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Whenever you end up in this position don?t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination company. Our engineers have got the practical knowledge and experience to get you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely an important condition to handle in a car - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol can certainly trigger idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both circumstances fairly easily.

Bear in mind that if the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will probably be completely wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated close to parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir laying in the rear of the garden full of unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of private and business premises in West Yorkshire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps several containers in a garage, as long as we are able to access it, we are able to empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Oakes (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a full West Yorkshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to refill your automobile in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) and refill the car. They can also take care of any of the normal issues which can come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.
