We are ready to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Cheshire we have found more and more examples of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a result of motorists not being aware of the way to to make use of (note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right near to each other on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as the product is predominantly deionised water, it is just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And certainly take care not to turn over the motor - not even to maneuver it into a parking bay. In cases where you did start the vehicle you will almost certainly need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, can be a significant issue to address in a car - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank is going to result in idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both situations very simply.

You should know though that so long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured near to a car parking bay we should be able to access the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

We have been called out to a number of private and business properties in Cheshire to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to access it, we are able to empty it for you.
