AdBlue Contamination

In Midlothian we are discovering a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree due to drivers being unsure of how to use it (take note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

So, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Because the product is mostly ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And certainly never switch on the engine - not even to relocate it to a parking area. In cases where you did start the vehicle you may in all probability have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally an important situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel can potentially trigger idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both circumstances fairly easily.

Be aware that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will probably be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated near to parking bay we will be able to access the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container lying in the back of your garden containing unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and business properties in Midlothian to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few containers in a garage, provided that we are able to access it, we are able to drain it.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Penicuik (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a full Midlothian Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to refill your vehicle any time you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump prices) and fill your vehicle. They will take care of any of the standard troubles which can come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Penicuik - Penicuik Vehicle Misfuel

I had enjoyed a terrific day cycling during the weekend and felt cheerful with myself the next morning as I set off to assist a new couple holidaying in Penicuik. They stopped after filling the wrong fuel in their MG, and were close to an hour away. I arrived at their car and smirked as I listened to the girl telling her man off for actually being so confused. "Precisely how could you possibly be able to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I wanted to clarify that this occurs quite frequently in Midlothian and that it is nothing to get worried about, even so he yet still had an ear bashing by his wife. I felt genuine sympathy for the lad. Anyways, I cleaned up and removed all the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. Watching as they drove away I shouted goodbye and thought about what her indoors would tell me if perhaps I made the very same error... I would personally under no circumstances live it down!
