Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we provide.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Lancashire we have seen more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly due to motorists not being aware of how to use it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to one another on the car.

Now, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? As AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And of course do not switch on the car - not even to shift it away from the pump. If perhaps you have started the car you will very likely need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious condition to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel tank can contribute to idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both situations rather swiftly.

Keep in mind however that whenever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one is going to be wholly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated near to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel container sitting in the rear of the garden with out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many private and commercial premises in Lancashire to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or even some containers in a storage shed, provided that we are able to reach it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Waterslack (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a comprehensive Lancashire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to fill up your car any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) to fill up your car or truck. They will deal with any of the normal troubles that might accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Waterslack - Waterslack Petrol in Diesel

I had appreciated a perfect afternoon golfing on my holiday and felt delighted the following morning as I headed out to help a young family on holiday in Waterslack. They stopped after filling petrol into their Land Rover, and they were approximately half an hour's travel away. I got there at their location and smirked to myself as I listened to the lady telling off her spouse for being so confused. "How could you actually find a way to fill the car up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to explain that this occurs on daily basis in Lancashire and that it is nothing to stress about, but he in spite of everything had his ear bent by his missus. Unfortunate guy. Anyway, I extracted all the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the proper fuel. While watching them drive down the road I shouted so long and thought about what my wife would tell me if I made the exact same blunder... I would never hear the end of it!
