This is what we do best.

AdBlue Contamination

In Derbyshire we have identified a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a result of people not understanding the right way to use it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to one another on the car.

Now, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Contact us in the event that you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can fix all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious matter to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in petrol or diesel will often produce idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with fully, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both situations pretty simply.

You should know though that whenever the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a vehicle parking spot we can access the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir lying in the rear of your garden full of old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and industrial properties in Derbyshire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in an outbuilding, provided that we can get to it, we can certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Mercaton (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a full Derbyshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to fill up your car in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) and fill your automobile. They will be able to take care of any of the standard issues that might go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries due to over-cranking.
