Our Services:

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we give.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around North Yorkshire we are finding more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of motorists not being aware of how to work with it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to one another on the car.

So, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? As AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If perhaps you find yourself in this predicament do not panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our engineers possess the technical competence and experience to get you back on your way promptly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a significant issue to address in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel may lead to idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both cases very simply.

Keep in mind though that so long as the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will probably be completely water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to access the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir laying at the back of your garden containing aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial properties in North Yorkshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a few containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we can reach it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Helmsley (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a complete North Yorkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to fill up your car in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) and refill your car. They will fix any of the normal problems which can go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.
