Services We Deliver:
Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we give.
AdBlue Contamination
Throughout Cumbria we have encountered increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially thanks to people not being aware of the way to to make use of (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to one another on the vehicle.
So, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.
If perhaps you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely take care not to switch on the car - not even to shift it into a parking spot. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you will in all probability need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed out.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely an important matter to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel can cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both situations rather quickly.
Take note however that whenever the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will probably be totally wet and ineffective.
Boat Fuel Drains
If there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Have a fuel reservoir lying in the rear of your premises with out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and commercial premises in Cumbria for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Wrong Fuel in Car Barrow-in-Furness - Barrow-in-Furness Wrong Fuel
I had enjoyed a fantastic day cycling on my holiday and was feeling pleased the next day as I was en route to aid a young family vacationing in Barrow-in-Furness. They'd conked out after inserting diesel into their Honda, and the car was approximately an hour's drive away. I turned up at their car and smirked to myself as I heard to the girl telling her spouse off for being so daft. "Just how could you actually be able to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to explain that this problem comes to pass continuously in Cumbria and that it's absolutely nothing to be concerned about, nevertheless he still got an earful. Unfortunate chap. In any case, I extracted the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. Watching them drive off I shouted farewell and pondered on what my wife would tell me in the event that I did the same thing... I would never hear the end of it!
