Do you or your employees frequently misfuel your vehicle? We can resolve any associated problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In West Yorkshire we have encountered an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially due to drivers not understanding the way to work with it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to one another on the car.

Well, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Since the product is primarily ionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely don't start up the car - not even to shift it to a parking place. In cases where you have started the car you may likely have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant matter to deal with in an automobile - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel can easily bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both cases fairly easily.

Bear in mind that if ever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a car parking bay we will be able to access the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel tank placed in the back of your premises full of aged, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous private and commercial properties in West Yorkshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered 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 container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few drums in an outbuilding, if we can get to it, we can certainly drain it.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Addingham (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full West Yorkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to refill your automobile if you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) and refill the car. They can also handle any of the most common issues that could go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.
