Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Lancashire we have identified increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially stemming from motorists not being totally sure the right way to work with it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out at once. And most definitely be careful not to start up the car - not even to move it from the pump. In case you did start the car you may in all probability need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly an important matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol may well produce idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both circumstances very easily.

You should know that whenever the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel tank lying at the rear of your premises full of aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial properties in Lancashire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or even a few drums in a shed, if we can access it, we are able to empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Mossy Lea (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a full Lancashire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to re-fill your vehicle in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) to fill up your car or truck. They will be able to deal with the usual issues that can accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
