AdBlue In Diesel
Throughout Shetland Islands we have seen progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent caused by drivers not knowing how to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to each other on the vehicle.
Now, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.
Whenever you discover youself to be in this scenario don?t panic! Call us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination business. Our technicians have the technical skills and working experience to get you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant situation to address in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel will result in idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out when compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both cases pretty easily.
Bear in mind however that so long as the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be totally wet and ineffective.
Boat Fuel Drains
If you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a car or truck parking bay we are able to access the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}
Management of Waste Fuel
Got a fuel container lying in the rear of the garden full of aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous private and commercial properties in Shetland Islands for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or possibly even a number of containers in a shed, provided that we can access it, we can drain it.

Various stories:
Now I'm not necessarily so inclined to carrying out work Sundays, and a couple weeks ago was the same. I had just departed the wife and kids after a superb roast cooked for us by the wife, and I was on my way to sort out a man after he had filled the wrong petrol in his MG. He was only in Lerwick so it wasn't long before I got to him. As I pulled up at the rear of the vehicle and got busy draining he explained to me "Thank the Almighty! I foolishly had my thoughts on something else and did not grasp that I've put diesel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I brought on any kind of harm by simply running it?" I said that generally there should not be damage and that also I'd personally drain the wrong fuel as soon as possible. It goes without saying that I got the fuel drained from the car and filled up with the appropriate fuel, and another content client had the ability to continue their journey without any subsequent difficulty. He could not stop saying thanks to me, and this is exactly what helps make operating on Sundays in Shetland Islands a tiny bit better for me!

She phoned us sobbing and extremely upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel car previously and didn't know what would happen to her vehicle . We told her that the car would be okay and that she would be on the road in no time at all. When we got there she was visible distressed but as our technician started work on the fuel drain she calmed down since she discovered that something could be done and her car wasn't unfixable. She quickly brightened up and was on the road again saying, "I really can't believe my bad luck putting petrol in my diesel car! Particularly with the youngsters in the back."
