AdBlue Contamination

In Lancashire we are discovering progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a result of motorists not understanding the way to use it (note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to each other on the car.

So, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As the product is primarily ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And definitely be careful not to start up the car - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually a significant condition to take care of in an automobile - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel is going to bring about idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out fully, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both situations quite simply.

Bear in mind that if the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one is going to be completely wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir placed at the back of the garden containing old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of private and industrial properties in Lancashire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous drums in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to get to it, we can empty it.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Kirkham (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a full Lancashire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to refill your automobile in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) to fill your automobile. They will be able to deal with any of the typical issues that might go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.


Fuel Drain Kirkham - Kirkham Wrong Fuel Drain

A customer contacted us from his place on a road in Kirkham. He explained, "My vehicle (a Citroen) is not running and is making awful sounds when I turn the ignition." He admitted that he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle but then imagined he would solve the problem by putting more Diesel on top. We showed up quickly, performed the fuel drain and filled it up once more with untainted Diesel. He told us that he would be sure to explain to people not to fill up in addition to the incorrect fuel but to get it drained promptly.

Some reports:

Now I'm not ever overly interested in running on Sundays, and a while back was the same. I had only just come away from the family filled with a wonderful roast cooked for me by the missus, and I was off to help a fellow because he put the incorrect fuel in his Toyota. He was somewhere in Kirkham therefore it wouldn't be a long time before I reached him. As I arrived behind the vehicle and got out he said to me "Thank God! I foolishly had my mind on stuff and failed to realise I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Is it possible I brought about any problems through running it?" I said that there probably should not be any harm and that also I'd drain the contaminated fuel as soon as possible. Needless to say I got the fuel drained from the car and put in the appropriate fuel, and so yet another delighted motorist had the ability to continue his journey without fuss. The man could not stop thanking me, and this is actually what makes operating on weekends in Lancashire just a little bit better in my opinion!

Petrol in Diesel Kirkham - Kirkham Wrong Fuel Drain

This was certainly what we call the night shift. It was roughly sunrise and almost noone was stirring. It was pretty quiet up to now, and me and Paul were loafing looking through a few old magazines. This was a rare calm hour in Lancashire. It was indeed that relaxing that the moment the telephone inevitably rang I leaped with surprise! The customer on the opposite end said: "I only just concluded my night shift and incredibly poured petrol in my Fiat in error". We asked him to let us know where exactly the car was and we left, reaching him in Kirkham no more than 30 minutes later. The fuel was taken out from the motor and he thanked us for coming so quickly. While we were going back to the depot we saw two young ladies at the edge of the road who appeared to have a puncture. So we pulled over and helped them change it, to their elation.

Fuel Rescue Kirkham - Kirkham Petrol in Diesel

A gentleman phoned us from Kirkham saying he had stupidly piped the wrong fuel in his diesel Nissan. "I can't believe it! I can't believe I put unleaded in my diesel car!" It took the specialist roughly 50 minutes to fully drain the incorrect fuel out of the car. He meticulously flushed the fuel lines, filter and pumps and put fresh diesel in the vehicle. The customer was very pleased and it hadn't cost him dealer rates to have the job properly done.
