It was just before ten pm on a Saturday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped pouring! James and me were relaxing talking over the tennis rankings, waiting around for the next fuel drain that day to come in. In due time we received the call from a woman on a company excursion who had gone to the Texaco petrol station in Leeds and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Lexus lease car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was pretty affected apparently, crying "I cannot believe that I have wrecked the car! I am so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I had did not remember that I was using a diesel!" We advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that things like this sadly do happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle to a safe spot and, because it was no more than a few miles off from our van, we could reach the lady almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was drained so she could get back to the Travelodge she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got pretty wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive off contented and much less anxious. One more fuel drain in West Yorkshire well done in my opinion!

AdBlue In Your Diesel
Throughout West Yorkshire we are identifying more and more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a result of drivers not understanding how to use it (note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to one another on the automobile.
Now, what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.
Call us if you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to fix every type of AdBlue contamination.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question a serious condition to take care of in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel will likely cause idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both situations very expediently.
Bear in mind though that if the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be totally wet and useless.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a car or truck parking bay we are able to reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

We have been called out to a number of privately owned and business properties in West Yorkshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages.

Wrong Fuel in Car Leeds - Leeds Fuel Rescue
A lady from Leeds with her children in her diesel Honda had filled her vehicle with £30 of petrol at the Co Op service station. She contacted us weeping and really upset as she had never wrong fuelled before and did not know what could happen to her vehicle in doing so. We told her that all should be okay and that she would be up and running in no time at all. When we arrived she was still distressed but as our technician started work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she recognised that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't wrecked. She soon cheered up and was up and running saying, "I can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Particularly with the youngsters on board."
