AdBlue Contamination

In Buckinghamshire we have discovered more and more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a consequence of drivers not understanding the way to to make use of (remember: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since the product is primarily deionised water, it's like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If in case you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely do not crank the vehicle - not even to move it off the pump. Assuming you did start the car you would very likely need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important issue to address in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel is likely to produce idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both cases fairly easily.

Keep in mind however that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to parking spot we will be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container sitting at the rear of your premises with aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many private and industrial properties in Buckinghamshire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps several containers in a shed, assuming that we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Westcroft (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a full Buckinghamshire Out of Fuel Service. We will come to re-fill the car any time you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and refill your car or truck. They will take care of the standard issues which may come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
