Our Areas of Competence :

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Derbyshire we are discovering an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to some extent thanks to drivers not understanding the right way to work with it (be aware: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Because AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And obviously don't start up the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking place. If you have started the car you would very likely need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be an important condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol is going to cause idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out properly, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both cases rather simply.

Be aware though that if ever the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a vehicle parking bay we are able to access the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container at the rear of the garden full of unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and business properties in Derbyshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or even a few drums in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to reach it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Ashopton (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a full Derbyshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up your vehicle any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill up the car. They are also able to handle the usual issues which may go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries because of over-cranking.
