Our Areas of Competence :

We are all set to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In County Londonderry we have identified more and more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially stemming from drivers not being aware of the right way to work with it (note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to one another on the car.

Now, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since the product is mostly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it immediately. And obviously never turn over the vehicle - not even to relocate it away from the pump. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you would probably need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually a significant condition to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel is likely to bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both circumstances fairly swiftly.

Bear in mind however that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a car parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got a fuel reservoir laying in the back of the garden with out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many domestic and industrial premises in County Londonderry to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even several drums in a storage shed, providing we can get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Derry (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a comprehensive County Londonderry Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to re-fill the car in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) and refill your automobile. They will take care of the usual issues that may come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
