Helping you get back on the road is our primary goal.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Northamptonshire we have noticed more and more cases of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partially due to drivers not knowing how to work with it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right adjacent to each other on the car.

Well, what is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And definitely do not turn over the car - not even to move it into a parking place. In the event that you did start the car you would in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually a serious condition to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel will often produce idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both circumstances pretty simply.

You should know that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to an automobile parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial properties in Northamptonshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous drums in a shed, as long as we are able to reach it, we could certainly drain it for you.
