Our Areas of Competency :

Do you or your employees frequently misfuel your vehicle? We can resolve any related issues.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around North Yorkshire we are finding an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a result of people being unsure of how to to make use of (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel car? As AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And most definitely never start the motor - not even to move it into a parking bay. If you did start the vehicle you may very likely need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a serious issue to take care of in a vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel can certainly cause idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both circumstances fairly simply.

Remember that if the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will be totally water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a car parking bay we should be able to reach the storage and remove the fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel tank laying in the back of your premises with unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial premises in North Yorkshire for the purpose 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 tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in a shed, assuming that we can reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.
