Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we give.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Merseyside we are noticing progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by people not being aware of the right way to to make use of (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to one another on the vehicle.

So, what exactly is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Since AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

If in case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And most certainly do not switch on the vehicle - not even to move it into a parking area. Assuming you have started the vehicle you may almost certainly need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important situation to deal with in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in the petrol or diesel can lead to idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both circumstances quite easily.

Keep in mind though that if ever the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked close to an automobile parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

We have been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial properties in Merseyside for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few containers in a shed, as long as we are able to reach it, we could certainly drain it.

Wrong Fuel Drain St Helens - St Helens Vehicle Misfuel

I had a wonderful day hiking on my off day and was feeling contented the following working day as I set out to help a new family on holiday in St Helens. They'd broken down after inserting diesel in their Jaguar, and they were close to half an hour away. I arrived at their location and smiled while I heard to the girl telling her hubby off for actually being so confused. "Exactly how could you actually be able to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I wanted to explain that this comes to pass constantly in Merseyside and that it's absolutely nothing to worry about, nevertheless he all the same had an ear bashing by his missus. Unfortunate boy. Anyway, I extracted the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the right fuel. While watching them drive away I waved hasta la vista and considered what my wife would say to me if perhaps I made the exact same mistake... I'd never live it down!
