This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around West Yorkshire we have identified a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to drivers not understanding how to to make use of (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to one another on the car.

So, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it immediately. And of course do not start up the motor - not even to shift it off of the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you would very likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question a serious matter to handle in an automobile - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water inside your petrol or diesel can lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not addressed effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both situations pretty expediently.

Take note though that whenever the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a car parking bay we will be able to gain access to the storage and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Fuel Removal Birkby - Birkby Fuel Removal

I had a perfect evening hiking on the weekend and was feeling contented the following working day as I headed out to assist a young family who were holidaying in Birkby. They'd broken down after inserting diesel into their Volkswagen, and were roughly half an hour's travel away. I got there at their car and smirked to myself as I heard to the wife telling off her partner for being so stupid. "Just how could you actually be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I attempted to explain that this comes to pass frequently in West Yorkshire and that it's actually nothing at all to be anxious about, nevertheless he in spite of everything had an ear bashing. Poor lad. Anyhow, I cleaned up and removed the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. Watching as they drove away I mouthed hasta la vista and pondered on what my missus would say to me if I did the exact same thing... I would personally never live it down!
