This is what we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around West Yorkshire we have noticed progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mostly as a result of motorists being unsure of the way to to make use of (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it asap. And most certainly don't turn over the vehicle - not even to shift it into a parking area. In cases where you did start the car you would in all probability have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important issue to address in an automobile - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank can produce idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both cases quite easily.

Take note however that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a vehicle parking spot we can reach the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Got an old fuel container laying at the back of the garden full of aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and industrial properties in West Yorkshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few drums in a shed, if we can reach it, we are able to empty it for you.

Fuel Drain Alwoodley - Alwoodley Vehicle Misfuel

A person called us from his house on a road in Alwoodley. He pronounced, "My vehicle (a MG) is not running and is creating awful noises when I flip the ignition." He admitted that he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle but then reckoned he would remedy the problem by putting more Diesel on top. We got there quickly, did the fuel drain and filled him up once again with clean Diesel. He told us that he'd be absolutely sure to inform people not to fill up on top of the wrong fuel but to have it cleaned out right away.
