AdBlue In your Fuel

In Derbyshire we have encountered a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination when a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is in part a result of people not understanding how to to make use of (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to one another on the automobile.

Well, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? As the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If you put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it at once. And obviously do not switch on the vehicle - not even to shift it away from the pump. In cases where you did start the car you may very likely need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a serious issue to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol is going to contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both circumstances quite expediently.

Keep in mind however that if ever the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one is going to be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked near to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

We have been called out to many domestic and business premises in Derbyshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages.

Vehicle Misfuel Tibshelf - Tibshelf Fuel Drain

I had enjoyed a terrific day fishing on my off day and was feeling pleased with myself the following day as I set out to help a young family who were on vacation in Tibshelf. They had conked out after adding petrol into their Mazda, and they were around an hour's drive away. I turned up at their position and smirked to myself as I listened to the wife berating her spouse for actually being so silly. "Precisely how could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I tried to tell her that this comes to pass constantly in Derbyshire and that it's nothing at all to be concerned about, nonetheless he yet still had an earful by his better half. Unlucky guy. Anyhow, I cleaned up and removed all of the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the correct fuel. While they drove off I mouthed good bye and wondered what my missus would ask me if I did the same thing... I would personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
