Our Fields of Expertise: Services We Offer:

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

AdBlue In Diesel

In Shropshire we are identifying a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is in part a result of people not being totally sure how to to make use of (pay attention: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to one another on the vehicle.

So, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is predominantly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And of course do not start up the engine - not even to move it to a parking area. In the instance that you have started the car you would most likely have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually a serious issue to take care of in a car - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank will often contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of than water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both circumstances rather easily.

Be aware that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to an automobile parking bay we can reach the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel container laying at the back of your premises with unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several private and business premises in Shropshire for the purpose of removing and recycling 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 garage, provided that we can reach it, we could certainly drain it for you.
