AdBlue Contamination

All around Derbyshire we are encountering a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a result of motorists not knowing how to to make use of (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to each other on the automobile.

So, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it at once. And most certainly don't start up the vehicle - not even to maneuver it off the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you would in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious condition to take care of in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your petrol or diesel is going to result in idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both cases pretty expediently.

You should know though that as long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will likely be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel reservoir in the back of your garden full of old, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial properties in Derbyshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or even some drums in a storage shed, if we are able to get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Bagshaw (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a comprehensive Derbyshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up your vehicle in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) to fill the car. They will handle the common problems that can go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Bagshaw - Bagshaw Wrong Fuel Doctor

Last week a gentleman contacted us when his BMW ground to a halt in the middle of a street in Bagshaw. He had inadvertently put the wrong fuel in his diesel car and drove as far as the road before having to pull over. It was really in the early hours of the day and our engineer, who resides close by, arrived with him in less than a quarter hour. We managed to drain the wrong fuel and put fresh diesel yet again in to the vehicle. "Sincere thanks to you for your prompt response, particularly at 3 a.m., I really appreciate it."
