We are willing to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Worcestershire we are encountering more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a degree due to drivers not being totally sure how to use it (be aware: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to one another on the automobile.

So, what exactly is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you discover youself to be in this situation don?t panic! Call us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our engineers possess the practical skills and working experience to get you back on your way promptly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a significant condition to take care of in a car - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel tank may well produce idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both cases fairly swiftly.

Be aware that any time the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will be wholly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a car or truck parking bay we can access the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

We've been called out to many privately owned and commercial properties in Worcestershire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages.

Wrong Fuel Drain Tunnel Hill - Tunnel Hill Fuel Drain

I had enjoyed a terrific day fishing on the weekend and was feeling contented the following morning as I set off to help a new family holidaying in Tunnel Hill. They'd broken down after adding petrol into their Mercedes, and the car was around an hour away. I turned up at their location and smiled to myself as I listened to the wife telling her hubby off for turning out to be so silly. "Exactly how could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I tried to explain that this situation comes to pass all the time in Worcestershire and that it's actually nothing at all to be concerned about, however he in spite of everything had an earful by his wife. Unfortunate guy. In any case, I drained the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. Watching them drive off I waved bon voyage and considered what my missus would ask me if ever I made the very same mistake... I'd personally never live it down!
