This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Falkirk we have seen an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly caused by drivers not being totally sure how to to make use of (important: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.

So, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And absolutely do not turn over the vehicle - not even to move it from the pump. If you have started the car you would in all likelihood need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious condition to take care of in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol is likely to lead to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. However we can solve both cases fairly quickly.

Be aware that so long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will probably be completely wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got a fuel reservoir lying in the back of the garden containing old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial premises in Falkirk to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps several drums in a shed, provided that we can get to it, we can drain it.

Wrong Fuel Bonnybridge - Bonnybridge Fuel Removal

I enjoyed a perfect afternoon fishing on my off day and felt contented with myself the following working day as I set off to help a new family on holiday in Bonnybridge. They had conked out after putting petrol in their Kia, and were approximately an hour's travel away. I showed up at their location and laughed as I listened to the gal chastising her husband for turning out to be so confused. "How could you actually manage to fill the vehicle up with the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I tried to clarify that this comes to pass quite frequently in Falkirk and that it's truly absolutely nothing to stress about, even so he all the same got an earful by his wife. Poor guy. Anyways, I cleaned up and removed all of the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the proper fuel. Watching while they drove off I shouted so long and wondered what her indoors would ask me if ever I did the exact same thing... I would under no circumstances live it down!
