Services We Give:

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Lancashire we have found more and more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a result of motorists not knowing the way to to make use of (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to each other on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Because AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Contact us if it turns out you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily attend to every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant condition to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank may bring about idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both cases pretty quickly.

Keep in mind though that any time the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will be thoroughly wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a car parking bay we are able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Vehicle Misfuel Clitheroe - Clitheroe Fuel Drain

I had a great day cycling on my holiday and was feeling contented with myself the next morning as I set off to help a young couple away in Clitheroe. They had stopped after inserting diesel in their Fiat, and the car was around an hour away. I turned up at their location and laughed to myself as I listened to the woman telling her man off for turning out to be so silly. "How could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I tried to explain that this situation takes place on a regular basis in Lancashire and that it's absolutely nothing to worry about, however he yet still had an earful. I felt genuine sympathy for the chap. At any rate, I extracted all the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. While they drove away I shouted good bye and thought about what my missus would do to me if perhaps I made the exact same blunder... I would under no circumstances hear the end of it!
