Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we offer.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Shropshire we have identified an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to motorists not being aware of the right way to work with it (remember: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to each other on the car.

So, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing that the product is mainly ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

Give us a call if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to attend to all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly an important matter to address in a car - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel will often lead to idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both situations quite simply.

Keep in mind however that as long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one is going to be totally water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to parking bay we should be able to reach the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Have an old fuel container lying in the back of your premises with unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and industrial premises in Shropshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Fuel Drain Buttonbridge - Buttonbridge Wrong Fuel Drain

I had a terrific day golfing during the weekend and was feeling cheerful the next day as I set out to aid a young family vacationing in Buttonbridge. They had pulled over after filling the wrong fuel in their MINI, and were around an hour's drive away. I got there at their position and smiled to myself as I listened to the woman telling her spouse off for actually being so foolish. "Just how could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I tried to explain that this kind of thing goes on on daily basis in Shropshire and that it's truly nothing to worry about, nonetheless he still had his ear bent by his better half. Unfortunate boy. Anyways, I drained the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the proper fuel. As they drove off I mouthed so long and thought about what her indoors would do to me if I made the same error... I'd personally never hear the end of it!
