Our Fields of Expertise:

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Derbyshire we are noticing a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a result of motorists not being totally sure how to to make use of (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Because the product is primarily deionised water, it's like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained right away. And of course be careful not to crank the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking spot. Assuming you have started the vehicle you would probably have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important situation to address in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel can potentially lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both cases quite swiftly.

Take note however that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to an automobile parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

We've been called out to many domestic and industrial properties in Derbyshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a garage, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can certainly drain it.
