Do you or your employees often misfuel your car? We can solve any related problems.
AdBlue In Your Diesel
Throughout Dumfries and Galloway we have discovered a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent due to drivers not being aware of the right way to work with it (note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to one another on the car.
So, what's the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Because AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.
Should you end up in this position do not panic! Call us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our engineers have got the practical know-how and experience to have you back on your way quickly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a significant situation to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank can produce idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both cases very easily.
You should know though that as long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.
Boat Fuel Drains
If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured near to parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

We've been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial properties in Dumfries and Galloway for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Wrong Fuel in Car Langholm - Langholm Fuel Rescue
I'd had a fantastic afternoon cycling on the weekend and felt contented with myself the following day as I set off to help a young family away in Langholm. They pulled over after inserting petrol into their Fiat, and were roughly half an hour's drive away. I arrived at their car and smirked to myself as I listened to the gal telling her husband off for turning out to be so foolish. "Exactly how could you even be able to fill the car up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to clarify that this takes place quite frequently in Dumfries and Galloway and that it's absolutely nothing to worry about, however he all the same had an ear bashing. Unfortunate guy. In any case, I removed all the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. Watching while they drove off I waved farewell and considered what my wife would do to me in the event that I did the exact same thing... I would never hear the end of it!

Vehicle Misfuel Langholm - Langholm Wrong Fuel Assist
A lady from Langholm with her children in her diesel Fiat had put £42 of petrol at the filling station. She phoned us sobbing and extremely distraught as she had never put petrol in a diesel before and didn't know what would happen to her car . We reassured her that everything would be fine and that she would be back up and running very quickly. When we arrived on scene she was visible upset but while our engineer began work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she saw that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't wrecked. She soon brightened up and was on her way saying, "I just can't believe my luck putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Specifically with the kids on board."
