We are willing to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Derbyshire we are discovering a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a result of people being unsure of the way to work with it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to one another on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Because AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And definitely don't turn over the engine - not even to move it to a parking spot. In the event that you have started the car you will most likely need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually an important issue to handle in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank can certainly contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both cases quite quickly.

Take note though that if ever the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the storage and remove the fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel tank lying at the back of the garden containing out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and commercial premises in Derbyshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a storage shed, as long as we can reach it, we can empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Sleet Moor (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a full Derbyshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill your automobile in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at cost) and fill up your car or truck. They are also able to take care of the standard troubles which could go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries because of over-cranking.
