We can help you with all these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Lancashire we are finding a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent caused by people not being aware of how to use it (take note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel car? As AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

If you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it immediately. And absolutely be careful not to start the car - not even to move it off the pump. Assuming you did start the vehicle you may almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant condition to handle in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol may well lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both cases fairly expediently.

Be aware though that if the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir lying at the rear of the garden full of aged, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and industrial properties in Lancashire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or even numerous drums in a shed, assuming that we are able to get to it, we are able to empty it for you.

Run out of fuel in Kirkham (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a comprehensive Lancashire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will come to re-fill your automobile any time you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home.

They will fix any of the normal troubles which may go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or maybe dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Recent Fuel Drains in Kirkham

Tales from our Kirkham employees:

No one likes being stranded in a car full of the wrong fuel on the street. We had a customer who filled her car with the incorrect fuel (Land Rover) in Kirkham ran into exactly this type of difficulty: "Unfortunately I erroneously put unleaded in my diesel car last week. I was so upset about my error that I was besides myself. Nonetheless I didn't need to worry seeing as you were outstanding in resolving my problem."

Wrong Fuel Doctor Kirkham - Kirkham Fuel Drain

A motorist who had unfortunately put petrol in his diesel Suzuki phoned us for assistance at the BP petrol station in Kirkham. He thought it would be good to fill up before proceeding on to the nearby holiday park but had put the wrong fuel in his car. "I put petrol rather than diesel which probably wasn't a smart way to begin to our vacation." It was no problem at all for our engineer to go along and do the fuel drain. We hope the family enjoyed their holiday.

Wrong Fuel Kirkham - Kirkham Wrong Fuel

I'd had a great evening cycling during the weekend and felt contented with myself the next day as I set out to aid a new family vacationing in Kirkham. They'd broken down after adding the wrong fuel in their Land Rover, and the car was about an hour's travel away. I showed up at their position and smiled while I heard to the gal telling her man off for actually being so foolish. "Precisely how could you actually be able to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I tried to clarify that this takes place on a regular basis in Lancashire and that it's absolutely nothing to stress about, but he all the same had his ear bent by his better half. Unlucky lad. In any case, I removed the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the correct fuel. Watching them drive away I mouthed good bye and pondered on what her indoors would do to me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I'd under no circumstances live it down!
