In due time we got the call from a young lady on a company excursion who had arrived at the Shell filling garage in Llangollen and filled petrol in her diesel Honda lease car. She was pretty affected it seemed, stating "I simply cannot believe that I've wrecked the car! I am so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember that I was using a diesel!"

We are all set to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Denbighshire we are noticing more and more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent a result of motorists being unsure of the way to work with it (note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing as the product is mainly deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

Contact us if you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily attend to different types of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely an important situation to address in a car - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Having water in the diesel or petrol will likely result in idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of than water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both situations fairly swiftly.

Keep in mind that whenever the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the tanks and remove the fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

We have been called out to many private and industrial properties in Denbighshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in a garage, providing we are able to get to it, we are able to empty it.

We can get out to refill your automobile any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home.
