Our Fields of Specialties: Services We Offer:
These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:
AdBlue In Diesel
In Birmingham we have noticed more and more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially caused by people not understanding how to use it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to each other on the vehicle.
So, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing as the product is mainly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.
If you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And of course don't start up the motor - not even to maneuver it to a parking place. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you may in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important situation to take care of in an automobile - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in your petrol or diesel can easily trigger idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both circumstances pretty simply.
Keep in mind that any time the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and useless.
Marine Fuel Drains
In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to parking spot we will be able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}
Management of Waste Fuel
Got an old fuel reservoir sitting in the rear of the garden containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial properties in Birmingham for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a shed, assuming that we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it for you.
