These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Shropshire we are finding a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent due to drivers not being totally sure the way to to make use of (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Now, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Since AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And of course never switch on the vehicle - not even to shift it into a parking bay. In case you did start the car you will almost certainly need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, can be a significant issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel may well trigger idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both cases rather swiftly.

You should know though that whenever the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container placed at the rear of the garden containing out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and industrial properties in Shropshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to reach it, we could certainly empty it.

Run out of fuel in Lea (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a complete Shropshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to refill your car any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Lea - Lea Petrol in Diesel

I had enjoyed a fantastic afternoon hiking during my holiday and was feeling pleased the next morning as I headed out to assist a new couple away in Lea. They conked out after inserting the wrong fuel into their Land Rover, and were around half an hour's drive away. I got there at their position and laughed while I heard to the wife berating her man for being so daft. "Just how could you actually be able to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to explain that this situation takes place continuously in Shropshire and that it is nothing at all to be concerned about, and yet he in spite of everything got his ear bent. Unlucky lad. Anyways, I drained all of the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the right fuel. While watching them drive away I shouted hasta la vista and wondered what her indoors would do to me if I made the very same blunder... I would personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
