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

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Shropshire we are discovering a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to some extent stemming from motorists being unsure of the right way to use it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to each other on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel car? As the product is mostly ionised water, it is just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call if it turns out you are going through AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to attend to every type of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually an important issue to handle in a vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank may well produce idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both situations rather quickly.

Keep in mind that any time the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to parking bay we can gain access to the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Petrol in Diesel Ludlow - Ludlow Wrong Fuel Assist

This really was what we call an unsociable hour to be up. It was about dawn and almost noone was about. It was rather uneventful so far, and me and John were loafing about browsing a few old magazines. This was a rare restful hour in Shropshire. It was so relaxing that the instant the telephone ultimately rang I leaped! The customer on the other end explained: "I've just ended my night shift and incredibly put the wrong fuel in my diesel Dacia by mistake". We instructed him to tell us exactly where the vehicle was and we left, ending up in Ludlow not as much as half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned from the motor. He said thanks for showing up so promptly. While we were going back home we saw two young women at the edge of the street who seemed to have a flat. Obviously we pulled over and helped them change it, to their elation.
