AdBlue Contamination

All around Cambridgeshire we are identifying a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree due to people not understanding how to use it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to one another on the car.

Now, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing that the product is predominantly deionised water, it's like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And certainly don't crank the engine - not even to shift it from the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will likely have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely an important matter to handle in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel will likely trigger idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both situations pretty easily.

You should know though that if the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Have an old fuel container laying at the back of your garden full of aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many private and industrial premises in Cambridgeshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or possibly even a number of containers in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

We're able to help to fill up your car in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home.
