AdBlue In Diesel

All over Shropshire we have noticed progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by drivers not understanding the right way to to make use of (please note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to each other on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Should you discover youself to be in this scenario do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination business. Our engineers have the practical competence and experience to get you back on the road promptly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually a significant issue to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel is likely to cause idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both cases quite quickly.

Be aware though that whenever the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will undoubtedly be completely wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank placed in the back of your premises with unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and commercial properties in Shropshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a storage shed, if we are able to get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Run out of fuel in Preston (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full Shropshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to re-fill the car in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and refill your car. They are also able to fix any of the common troubles which might accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Recent Fuel Drains in Preston

Stories from our own Preston staff:

We fairly recently had a phone call about a businessman who had put the wrong fuel in his Dacia in Preston. He had broken down on the road. "After inserting petrol in my diesel car I didn't realize the issue up until we broke down. You drained the wrong fuel from my car and got it working once again. I was pleased due to both how swift you were and your charges". It goes without saying that we arrived promptly and flushed the engine after flushing all of the contaminated fuel from the diesel tank. The client was delighted by the time we were done and he drove away satisfied and content.

Wrong Fuel Drain Preston - Preston Wrong Fuel

A customer from Preston with a full car of little ones in her diesel Kia had put £42 of petrol at the Sainsburys petrol station. She called us weeping and extremely upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel previously and didn't know what could happen to her car in doing so. We assured her that the car should be ok and that she would be up and running soon. When we got there she was still distressed but while our technician started work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she recognised that something could be done and her car wasn't unfixable. She soon brightened up and was up and running saying, "I can't believe my luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Particularly with the little ones on board."

Fuel Rescue Preston - Preston Wrong Fuel Doctor

A man called us from his place on a street in Preston. He exclaimed, "My vehicle (a Honda) is not starting up and is producing very bad sounds when I turn the ignition." He said that he had put unleaded in his diesel car but then imagined he would solve the problem by putting more Diesel on top. We got there quickly, carried out the fuel drain and filled him up once more with clean Diesel. He said that he'd be certain to tell people not to fill up in addition to the incorrect fuel but to get it drained right away.
