Our Fields of Specialties:

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Cumbria we have encountered a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a result of motorists not knowing the way to to make use of (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right near to one another on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that the product is primarily ionised water, it is as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it right away. And definitely take care not to turn over the vehicle - not even to relocate it to a parking area. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you will very likely have to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious situation to address in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel is likely to contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both cases very expediently.

Bear in mind though that if the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will probably be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated near to a car parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container placed in the back of the garden containing old, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous privately owned and business properties in Cumbria to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a storage shed, as long as we can access it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Kirkby Lonsdale (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a complete Cumbria Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to refill your car if you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) and fill your vehicle. They will be able to deal with the normal issues which can go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or even flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Kirkby Lonsdale - Kirkby Lonsdale Wrong Fuel in Car

A week ago a man telephoned us when his Volkswagen ground to a halt along a street in Kirkby Lonsdale. He had accidentally put the wrong fuel in the diesel motor and was only able to drive to the street before having to halt. It was yet early in the morning and our technician, who stays not far away, got to him in about twenty minutes. We were able to drain the wrong fuel and put fresh diesel once again in to the car. "Thank you for your timely response, and in particular at 6 a.m., I genuinely appreciate it."
