Have a fuel reservoir laying at the rear of your premises full of old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and industrial premises in Cambridgeshire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.
Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a garage, providing we are able to access it, we could certainly empty it.
Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important issue to deal with in an automobile - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.
Putting water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel will often lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied fully, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both situations rather simply.
Remember though that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and useless.
