Our Areas of Competence :

We are all set to take the wrong fuel job.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Lancashire we have noticed increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a degree stemming from motorists not being aware of the way to work with it (important: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to one another on the vehicle.

So, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you end up in this position do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination business. Our experts have the practical competence and experience to have you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question an important issue to address in an automobile - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the diesel or petrol will likely trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both situations very quickly.

Bear in mind though that whenever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one is going to be completely wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a car or truck parking spot we are able to reach the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel container laying at the rear of your premises containing out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of private and commercial properties in Lancashire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we can reach it, we can empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Claughton (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a full Lancashire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to fill up your car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) to fill up your vehicle. They can also deal with any of the usual issues which might accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Claughton - Claughton Wrong Fuel Assist

A young lady from Claughton with her children in her diesel MINI had filled her vehicle with £40 of petrol at the Sainsburys petrol station. She called us weeping and really worried as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel previously and didn't know what might happen to her vehicle in doing so. We reassured her that all would be fine and that she would be in action very quickly. When we arrived she was visible distressed but while our engineer started work on the fuel drain she calmed down because she discovered that something could be done and her car wasn't unfixable. She soon cheered up and was on the road again saying, "I can't believe my luck putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Particularly with the youngsters on board."
