We can assist you with these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Lancashire we are encountering a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a result of people being unsure of the way to work with it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it at once. And certainly be careful not to crank the vehicle - not even to move it off the pump. If perhaps you did start the car you will most likely need to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually an important situation to deal with in a vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel will likely produce idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both situations rather expediently.

Keep in mind though that whenever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will be completely wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to an automobile parking spot we are able to reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel container laying at the rear of your garden containing unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial properties in Lancashire to take care of 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. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in an outbuilding, provided that we can get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Brook Bottom (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a full Lancashire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up your car if you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump prices) to fill up the car. They can also deal with any of the most common problems which can accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

It was still in the early hours of the day and our technical engineer, who lives not far away, reached him in less than twenty minutes.
