Assisting you get back on the road is our primary goal.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Derbyshire we are noticing an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of motorists not being totally sure the right way to use it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

So, what exactly is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

In the case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And certainly never start up the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking area. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you would almost certainly have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a serious situation to handle in an automobile - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel tank can potentially lead to idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both situations pretty expediently.

Keep in mind however that so long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a vehicle parking spot we are able to reach the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

We have been called out to a number of domestic and industrial properties in Derbyshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even some containers in a storage shed, providing we can access it, we can empty it for you.
