AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Lancashire we are encountering increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mostly due to drivers not knowing the way to work with it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to one another on the vehicle.

So, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

Should you get in this situation do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our engineers have the technical skills and experience to get you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious issue to address in a vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel will likely lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both cases fairly swiftly.

Be aware however that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored near to parking spot we can access the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank laying at the back of your garden with old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous private and industrial premises in Lancashire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or even numerous drums in a shed, assuming that we can reach it, we are able to empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Street (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a complete Lancashire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to re-fill your car any time you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump prices) to fill the car. They are also able to take care of any of the common issues which might go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Street - Street Fuel Removal

I'd had a terrific afternoon fishing on my off day and was feeling contented the next morning as I was en route to help a young couple who were away in Street. They broken down after putting diesel into their Vauxhall, and were approximately half an hour away. I arrived at their position and smiled to myself as I listened to the woman telling her partner off for actually being so stupid. "Precisely how could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I attempted to clarify that this happens regularly in Lancashire and that it is absolutely nothing to get worried about, and yet he in spite of everything had an earful by his better half. Unlucky chap. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave them some correct fuel. While watching them drive down the road I mouthed good-bye and thought about what my missus would ask me if ever I made the very same error... I would personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
