Our Areas of Competence :

Do you or your drivers usually misfuel your vehicle? We can resolve any associated issues.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Dumfries and Galloway we are discovering progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is in part a result of motorists not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to each other on the automobile.

Now, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it immediately. And most certainly never switch on the engine - not even to shift it off the pump. In cases where you have started the car you will likely need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be a serious situation to take care of in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Having water inside your diesel or petrol will trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain in comparison with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both cases fairly easily.

Keep in mind however that if the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to an automobile parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel reservoir placed in the rear of your premises with unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and commercial properties in Dumfries and Galloway to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous drums in a shed, if we can access it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

We will come to fill up your vehicle any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) to refill your car or truck.

Wrong Fuel Drain Dalbeattie - Dalbeattie Petrol in Diesel

I had enjoyed a wonderful day fishing during my off day and felt contented with myself the next morning as I set out to assist a young family who were holidaying in Dalbeattie. They had stopped after filling the wrong fuel into their Renault, and they were roughly half an hour away. I arrived at their position and laughed while I heard to the gal telling her partner off for actually being so daft. "Exactly how could you even be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I tried to clarify that this happens on a regular basis in Dumfries and Galloway and that it is absolutely nothing to be anxious about, nevertheless he still got an ear bashing. I felt genuine sympathy for the boy. Anyway, I extracted all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. While they drove down the road I waved good bye and thought about what my wife would tell me in the event that I made the very same blunder... I would personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
