Do you or your employees frequently misfuel your vehicle? We can fix any related issues.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Lancashire we have seen more and more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partially as a consequence of motorists not knowing how to use it (take note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because the product is primarily ionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

In case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And most certainly take care not to switch on the engine - not even to relocate it to a parking spot. Assuming you have started the vehicle you may in all probability have to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question an important condition to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank will often lead to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of than water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both cases very expediently.

Bear in mind however that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured close to a car parking bay we are able to reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel reservoir placed in the back of the garden with old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and business properties in Lancashire for the purpose of 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. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even a number of containers in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to reach it, we can certainly drain it.
