Our Fields of Specialties:

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue Contamination

In Derbyshire we have seen a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a consequence of people not being totally sure the way to use it (remember: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to each other on the automobile.

Now, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Because AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

In the case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained right away. And most certainly do not start up the motor - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you will very likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a significant condition to handle in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel is likely to lead to idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both cases very simply.

Be aware though that in the event that the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to parking bay we can gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Wrong Fuel in Car Hopton - Hopton Vehicle Misfuel

I had appreciated a wonderful afternoon golfing during my holiday and was feeling satisfied with myself the next working day as I set out to assist a young family holidaying in Hopton. They pulled over after adding the wrong fuel in their Toyota, and they were roughly half an hour's travel away. I arrived at their car and smiled while I listened to the girl telling her hubby off for being so silly. "Precisely how could you possibly be able to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I wanted to tell her that this situation occurs all the time in Derbyshire and that it's nothing at all to be anxious about, nonetheless he yet still got his ear bent by his wife. Unfortunate guy. In any case, I removed all of the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. Watching as they drove down the road I waved farewell and thought about what my wife would say to me if ever I made the same error... I would under no circumstances live it down!
