Do you or your drivers usually misfuel your vehicle? We can solve any related problems.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Lincolnshire we have discovered a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly a result of people not being totally sure the right way to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to each other on the vehicle.

So, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Because the product is mostly ionised water, it is just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

In case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And most certainly do not crank the motor - not even to shift it off the pump. In case you did start the car you will almost certainly have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious issue to deal with in a car - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel can cause idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both cases very quickly.

You should know however that whenever the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will probably be completely wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we can reach the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Got a fuel tank at the back of your garden containing out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of private and industrial properties in Lincolnshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in a garage, provided that we are able to reach it, we are able to empty it for you.

We can easily come to re-fill your car in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home.
