This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue Contamination

In Northamptonshire we are noticing increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a consequence of people not being totally sure how to work with it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to one another on the car.

Now, what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it right away. And most definitely do not crank the vehicle - not even to shift it off the pump. In the event that you have started the car you may likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be an important condition to address in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel tank will often trigger idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both situations rather expediently.

Take note however that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will be totally water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a car parking bay we will be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

We've been called out to several private and business premises in Northamptonshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even some containers in a garage, providing we can reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.

I am not overly excited about running on Sundays, and the other day was the same. I'd just departed the family after a superb roast made for us by the better half, and I was on the way to help a guy because he filled the wrong petrol in his Land Rover. He was situated in Desborough and so I arrived there rapidly. Just as I drove up at the vehicle and got busy draining he told me "Praise God! I incredibly had my attention on something else and did not ascertain I have put diesel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I brought about harm because of driving it?" I said that truth be told there shouldn't be problems and also I would personally get the wrong fuel drained quickly. Obviously I removed the fuel from the car and filled it with some correct fuel, and thus another contented customer could carry on with their trip without any hassle. He did not stop thanking me, and this makes working on Sundays in Northamptonshire that tiny bit better to me!
