This is what we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Birmingham we are identifying a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mostly due to motorists not being totally sure the way to to make use of (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to one another on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? As AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained at once. And definitely take care not to start the vehicle - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you would likely need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel can produce idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out than water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both circumstances quite easily.

Bear in mind though that in the event that the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will likely be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to an automobile parking spot we are able to gain access to the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

We've been called out to a number of domestic and commercial properties in Birmingham to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or even numerous drums in a garage, providing we are able to reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.
