AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Greater Manchester we have seen an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is in part due to people not being totally sure how to use it (be aware: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to one another on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely take care not to crank the engine - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. If you have started the vehicle you may probably have to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a significant issue to handle in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol is likely to bring about idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both circumstances rather easily.

Be aware however that any time the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked close to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank at the back of your premises full of old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and business premises in Greater Manchester to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or even a few drums in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to reach it, we can empty it.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Flixton (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete Greater Manchester Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to re-fill your car if you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) and fill your vehicle. They are also able to fix the standard problems that may come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Flixton - Flixton Fuel Drain

Last monday a young man contacted us after his BMW stopped along a road in Flixton. He had by mistake put unleaded in the diesel vehicle and got to the road before having to halt. It was in the early hours of the morning and our fuel drainer, who lives nearby, got to him in less than a quarter hour. We were able to remove the wrong fuel and put clean diesel yet again in the vehicle. "Thank you for your prompt response, and in particular at 2 a.m., I genuinely appreciate it."
