We got to him in a quarter-hour seeing that our technician was in neighbouring Lower Leigh and had concluded his previous job.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Staffordshire we have discovered increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a degree thanks to drivers not knowing the way to work with it (take note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to one another on the car.

Well, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? As AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And certainly take care not to start the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking spot. If you have started the car you would in all probability have to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a serious matter to handle in a car - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can certainly produce idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both cases very simply.

Take note however that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one is going to be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel container lying at the rear of the garden containing unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several domestic and commercial properties in Staffordshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several containers in a garage, if we can get to it, we are able to drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Lower Leigh (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a comprehensive Staffordshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to fill up your car if you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) to refill your car. They are also able to handle the usual problems that might accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

We showed up promptly, performed the fuel drain and filled it up again with fresh Diesel.
