We are all set to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue Contamination

In West Midlands we are encountering more and more cases of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a result of drivers not knowing how to work with it (important: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly next to one another on the car.

Now, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Since the product is mostly deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And definitely never turn over the vehicle - not even to move it off the pump. In the event that you did start the car you would likely need to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually a significant issue to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel will often cause idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain than water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both cases pretty quickly.

You should know that as long as the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to reach the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir sitting at the back of your garden with unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several domestic and business properties in West Midlands to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or even a number of drums in a storage shed, assuming that we can reach it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Stourbridge (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a complete West Midlands Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to fill up the car if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump prices) to fill up the car. They will be able to deal with any of the standard problems which may go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe flat batteries because of over-cranking.
