Do you or your drivers usually misfuel your car? We can solve any associated issues.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout North Yorkshire we are identifying progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partially due to drivers not understanding the right way to to make use of (take note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to each other on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained at once. And obviously do not start the motor - not even to move it into a parking spot. In the event that you did start the car you may most likely need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a serious condition to handle in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel will often bring about idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out than water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both circumstances quite simply.

Be aware that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will probably be wholly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to parking bay we can access the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel tank placed in the back of the garden full of out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of private and commercial premises in North Yorkshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it.
