AdBlue Contamination

All over Shropshire we have seen a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly a result of drivers not understanding the right way to use it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to one another on the car.

Now, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it at once. And certainly don't start the engine - not even to shift it off the pump. Assuming you did start the car you may most likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious issue to address in an automobile - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel can produce idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both circumstances quite simply.

You should know however that as long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will be wholly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a car parking bay we can gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container laying in the back of the garden with aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and industrial premises in Shropshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a shed, provided that we are able to get to it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Craven Arms (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a complete Shropshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill the car in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump prices) and refill the car. They will be able to deal with any of the standard troubles that could go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

A customer had conked out near a street in Craven Arms. His MG engine had stopped functioning and he had no clue what was faulty right up until he noticed he had put petrol in his diesel car. He contacted us to get a fuel drain and that is when he explained to us: "I can't believe that I didn't comprehend that I had put the wrong fuel in my car."
