AdBlue In Diesel
In Falkirk we have encountered a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of motorists not being totally sure how to work with it (pay attention: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to each other on the automobile.
Now, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.
In the case you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And certainly never crank the engine - not even to shift it away from the pump. In cases where you did start the vehicle you will in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a serious matter to deal with in an automobile - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank can easily result in idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, potentially blown injectors. 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. Even so we are able to solve both cases fairly swiftly.
Keep in mind however that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will probably be thoroughly wet and unusable.
Boat Fuel Drains
If you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a vehicle parking spot we are able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}
Disposal of Waste Fuel
Got an old fuel reservoir in the back of the garden with old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial premises in Falkirk to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or even some containers in a shed, providing we are able to reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.
Re-Fueling Assistance
Out of fuel in Shieldhill (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a complete Falkirk Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to refill your car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) to refill your car. They will be able to deal with the common issues which might go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

A lady from Shieldhill with a full car of kids in her diesel Vauxhall had filled her vehicle with £40 of petrol at the Co Op filling station. She called us crying and very distraught as she had never wrong fuelled and did not know what could happen to her car because of it. We assured her that everything would be okay and that she would be back on the road soon. When we got there she was still distressed but as our fuel drainer started work on the fuel drain she simmered down since she recognised that something could be done and her car wasn't wrecked. She quickly brightened up and was up and running saying, "I simply can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Particularly with the children on board."

A customer called us from his house on a close in Shieldhill. He pronounced, "My car (a Volvo) is not running and is making very bad noises when I turn the key." He confessed that he had put petrol in his diesel car but then thought he would solve the problem by putting additional Diesel on top. We got there quickly, carried out the drain and filled it up again with untainted Diesel. He said he'd be absolutely sure to tell people not to fill up over the wrong fuel but to get it drained immediately.
