Do you or your employees frequently misfuel your vehicle? We can solve any connected issues.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Staffordshire we are discovering increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of people not being aware of the right way to use it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to one another on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

In the case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out asap. And of course take care not to switch on the engine - not even to move it off of the pump. If perhaps you did start the car you may in all probability need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly an important condition to take care of in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol can easily lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both situations very expediently.

Take note though that so long as the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will be wholly wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a vehicle parking bay we can access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir sitting at the back of your premises with out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and business properties in Staffordshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Rileyhill (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete Staffordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to re-fill the car any time you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) to fill your car or truck. They will be able to take care of any of the most common issues which could go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
