Do you or your drivers frequently misfuel your car? We can fix any connected issues.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Lancashire we are noticing increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to motorists being unsure of how to use it (important: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to each other on the automobile.

So, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Since the product is mainly deionised water, it's like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it right away. And most certainly never start up the engine - not even to move it off of the pump. In the instance that you have started the car you would most likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a serious matter to handle in a vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel will result in idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied fully, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove than water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both circumstances fairly quickly.

Keep in mind that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will be completely wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a car parking spot we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got a fuel tank laying in the back of the garden containing old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial premises in Lancashire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a storage shed, if we are able to access it, we can empty it.

Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Farington Moss (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a full Lancashire Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to re-fill your car in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) and refill your car or truck. They will deal with the most common issues which can come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, as well as flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
