AdBlue Contamination

All around Cambridgeshire we are encountering more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partly thanks to people being unsure of the way to use it (remember: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Well, what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

Contact us if it turns out you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to correct different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a significant issue to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water in fuel can easily contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both cases rather simply.

Bear in mind though that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will likely be totally wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated near to a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to access the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel container sitting in the rear of the garden with old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial premises in Cambridgeshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several containers in a garage, providing we are able to access it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Black Bank (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a full Cambridgeshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to re-fill the car in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump price) and refill your vehicle. They will be able to take care of any of the most common issues that can come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.
