AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Lancashire we have found a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree a result of motorists not being aware of how to use it (note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it at once. And most definitely don't start the vehicle - not even to move it off the pump. In the event that you did start the car you may probably have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a significant situation to deal with in an automobile - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water inside your petrol or diesel will likely contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both cases fairly simply.

Keep in mind though that so long as the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will likely be totally water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to parking bay we should be able to access the storage and drain out the fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank in the rear of the garden containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and commercial premises in Lancashire to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several drums in a storage shed, as long as we can get to it, we can empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Lumb (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a complete Lancashire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to refill your automobile if you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill up your automobile. They will be able to deal with any of the most common issues which might accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, as well as dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Lumb - Lumb Wrong Fuel Assist

A customer had conked out near a street in Lumb. His Audi motor had ceased functioning and he'd no idea what was awry until eventually he realised he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle. He rang us to request a fuel drain and that is when he said to us: "I cannot believe that I did not realise that I put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had gotten absolutely no rest the evening before and that could have been the key reason why.
