Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Greater Manchester we are noticing a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to motorists not being totally sure the way to use it (note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to each other on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

In the case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And of course be careful not to turn over the vehicle - not even to shift it off the pump. In cases where you have started the car you may very likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant situation to take care of in an automobile - especially in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the diesel or petrol will often contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both circumstances pretty simply.

Keep in mind that any time the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one is going to be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated close to a car or truck parking bay we can gain access to the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

We have been called out to numerous domestic and business properties in Greater Manchester to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in a garage, provided that we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it for you.
