We are willing to take the wrong fuel job.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Northamptonshire we have discovered more and more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent stemming from drivers being unsure of how to use it (be aware: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to each other on the car.

Now, precisely what is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it at once. And certainly don't start the motor - not even to maneuver it into a parking area. Assuming you did start the car you would most likely need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually a serious issue to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank will bring about idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both circumstances fairly swiftly.

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

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a car or truck parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank laying in the rear of your premises full of old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial premises in Northamptonshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or even some drums in a storage shed, providing we can access it, we are able to empty it for you.

Fuel Drain Little Irchester - Little Irchester Wrong Fuel Drain

He said that he had put unleaded in his diesel car but then believed he would solve the problem by putting more Diesel on top. We were on scene quickly, performed the fuel drain and filled him up once again with clean Diesel.
