Wrong Fuel Drain Thornaby-on-Tees - Thornaby-on-Tees Fuel Rescue
Ahhh, that was a quality night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 am on a gloomy Saturday and we were off to help an older lovely lady after she had put petrol in her diesel Vauxhall in Thornaby-on-Tees. She informed us that she had left the petrol station and was stranded in a rural road on the way to pay a visit to her godchildren. I punched her location in the Satnav and arrived inside an hour or so. I reached the vehicle and drained the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was doing it she said to me, "I am becoming somewhat forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the car using diesel because I'd just acquired it several days ago after my other car, which I had had for in excess of twenty years, finally stopped working". I got the job done and she gave me a toffee and said thanks a lot. What a delightful North Yorkshire lady!

Do you or your employees often misfuel your car? We can resolve any connected issues.
AdBlue Contamination
In North Yorkshire we are encountering a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a result of drivers not being totally sure the way to work with it (remember: it's actually not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to one another on the car.
So, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it's like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.
Contact us in the event that you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to correct all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a serious situation to handle in a car - especially in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the petrol or diesel will often bring about idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both cases very expediently.
You should know however that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will be wholly water-logged and ineffective.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we can gain access to the storage and remove the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}
Removal of Waste Fuel
Have an old fuel reservoir lying at the rear of your garden full of unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several private and industrial properties in North Yorkshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a garage, as long as we can get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.
