AdBlue Contamination

In Lancashire we have identified a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly a result of people not being totally sure the way to to make use of (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As the product is primarily deionised water, it's almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it asap. And most certainly be careful not to turn over the car - not even to move it from the pump. In the event that you did start the car you may most likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely a serious issue to handle in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel can certainly cause idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both circumstances quite expediently.

Bear in mind though that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel tank laying in the back of the garden containing out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial premises in Lancashire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even a number of containers in a garage, if we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Waterfoot (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a full Lancashire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will come to re-fill the car in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) to fill your automobile. They will handle any of the typical troubles which can go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
