It was after 6 pm on a Monday and though we were assured a rainless evening, it had not ceased pouring down rain! James and me were sitting discussing the rugby, waiting around for the sixth job that day to come in. Before long we had a call from a lovely women on a company trip who had gone to the Sainsburys filling station in Burley In Wharfedale and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Renault lease car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was pretty irritated apparently, telling me "I can't believe I've messed up the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I completely did not remember that I was using a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to worry, also that such things do happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a secure area and, as it was no more than a short distance away from us, we were able to get to the customer swiftly. The contaminated fuel was taken out and she was able to get back to the motel she was residing in.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over West Yorkshire we have discovered a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a degree caused by people not being aware of the right way to use it (note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to each other on the automobile.

So, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? As AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained right away. And certainly do not crank the motor - not even to shift it from the pump. In case you have started the car you may almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the petrol or diesel is going to contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with fully, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult 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 can handle both situations quite quickly.

You should know however that whenever the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will likely be totally water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank laying in the back of your premises full of unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and industrial properties in West Yorkshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a garage, as long as we are able to access it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Burley In Wharfedale (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a complete West Yorkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to refill your car in the event that 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 come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill your car or truck. They will deal with any of the common problems that might go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Removal Burley In Wharfedale - Burley In Wharfedale Wrong Fuel

I had appreciated a terrific day cycling on my off day and felt contented with myself the next day as I headed out to assist a young couple away in Burley In Wharfedale. They'd conked out after inserting diesel in their SEAT, and the car was approximately an hour's drive away. I got there at their car and smirked to myself as I heard to the lady telling her man off for actually being so confused. "Just how could you possibly be able to fill the car up using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I attempted to clarify that this situation occurs constantly in West Yorkshire and that it's truly nothing at all to stress about, however he all the same had his ear bent by his better half. Unfortunate guy. In any case, I drained the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave them some correct fuel. Watching them drive away I mouthed farewell and considered what her indoors would ask me if perhaps I made the exact same blunder... I'd under no circumstances hear the end of it!
