We can help you with all these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Cornwall we have noticed a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent due to motorists being unsure of how to to make use of (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to each other on the automobile.

Well, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained at once. And most certainly never turn over the car - not even to shift it from the pump. In cases where you did start the car you will most likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be a serious condition to address in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel can certainly produce idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both situations very swiftly.

Be aware though that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will be totally wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked near to parking spot we can reach the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

We have been called out to numerous private and commercial premises in Cornwall to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or even some containers in a storage shed, assuming that we can reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Recent Fuel Drains in Helston

A number of the ordinary troubles we get from many of our employees in Helston:

We were called by a man whose Jaguar had stopped on a street after a misfuel. "I got the pumps confused and put petrol instead of diesel in my car in error. You guys arrived and fixed the issue when my car gave up." We purged the petrol from the diesel tank and flushed the system completely afterwards and the customer could continue with his deliveries.

Wrong Fuel Helston - Helston Fuel Drain

A young lady living in Helston called us after she tried to get her misfueled automobile to the office. She had put the wrong fuel in her diesel Toyota and, like plenty prior to her, assumed that she could basically fill up the vehicle with diesel and it'd run alright. The vehicle was spluttering and then it died when she arrived at the the front of her office. We immediately went to work on the fuel drain following her call and had it sorted in 60 minutes while she was at the office. She came outside afterwards and thanked us stating, "I'm very glad you fixed my vehicle."
