Our Areas of Competence :

Helping you get back on the road is our main goal.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Lancashire we are noticing a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to some extent thanks to people not knowing the way to use it (remember: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Well, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If in case you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained right away. And of course don't turn over the car - not even to shift it into a parking place. In cases where you have started the car you will very likely need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant condition to deal with in an automobile - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel may well trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out than water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both situations quite simply.

You should know though that so long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will likely be totally water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated close to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to gain access to the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container at the back of your garden containing out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and industrial properties in Lancashire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several containers in a shed, if we can access it, we are able to empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Blackburn (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a comprehensive Lancashire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to fill up your automobile in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump prices) to refill your automobile. They are also able to deal with the common troubles that could accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Blackburn - Blackburn Wrong Fuel

A gentleman had conked out just near a road in Blackburn. His Jaguar engine had stopped running and he had no clue what was wrong until he noticed he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle. He rang us to get a fuel drain and that is when he told us: "I cannot believe that I did not comprehend that I had put the incorrect fuel in my car." He said that he had got absolutely no sleep the evening before and that must have been the key reason why.
