It was around five pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless day, it had not stopped raining! Ray and me were resting there talking about the football, ready for the next fuel drain to come in. In due time we had the call from a young lady on a business expedition who had gone to the BP petrol station in Roydhouse and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Smart rental by mistake. The unfortunate lady was fairly distressed by the sounds of it, stating "I simply cannot believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I am just so used to filling my petrol vehicle I had did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to worry, also that these things can happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a protected area and, seeing that it was only a few miles off from the office, we were able to arrive at the customer fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was drained and she could go home to the motel she was residing in. Despite the fact we got very wet, it was all worth the time to watch her drive home relaxed and a lot less stressed. Another fuel drain in West Yorkshire well done in my opinion!

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we offer.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over West Yorkshire we are encountering increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partly as a consequence of drivers not understanding the right way to use it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

If perhaps you get in this situation do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination company. Our engineers have got the practical knowledge and working experience to have you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant condition to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel is going to trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both situations pretty simply.

Remember that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a vehicle parking spot we can access the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel container placed in the rear of your premises with aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and commercial properties in West Yorkshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or even several containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we can get to it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Roydhouse (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a complete West Yorkshire Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill your vehicle in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump prices) to fill up your vehicle. They can also take care of the most common problems that can come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Roydhouse - Roydhouse Wrong Fuel

A man contacted us from his house on a close in Roydhouse. He said, "My vehicle (a Mazda) is not running and is making very bad noises when I turn the ignition." He admitted that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car but then reckoned he would fix the issue by putting extra Diesel on top. We showed up quickly, performed the drain and filled it up once more with fresh Diesel. He said he'd be absolutely sure to advise people not to fill up over the incorrect fuel but to have it drained immediately.
