AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Dorset we have found increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent thanks to drivers not knowing how to use it (please note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to one another on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Because AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And obviously do not turn over the car - not even to relocate it from the pump. If you have started the vehicle you will likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a significant matter to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank will likely bring about idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both cases quite quickly.

Take note that whenever the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored near to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container sitting in the rear of the garden with unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several private and industrial premises in Dorset to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered 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 tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in a storage shed, as long as we are able to get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Cheselbourne (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a complete Dorset Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to re-fill the car in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump price) to fill up the car. They will be able to handle any of the common problems that could accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Cheselbourne - Cheselbourne Fuel Drain

I'd had a great evening cycling on my day off and was feeling satisfied with myself the following day as I set out to aid a young family who were holidaying in Cheselbourne. They'd stopped after inserting petrol in their Audi, and they were close to half an hour's travel away. I turned up at their car and smirked to myself while I heard to the gal berating her spouse for actually being so foolish. "Exactly how could you even be able to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I wanted to tell her that this takes place quite frequently in Dorset and that it is nothing at all to stress about, nonetheless he all the same had an earful. I felt genuine sympathy for the chap. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed all the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. Watching them drive off I waved good-bye and thought about what my wife would say to me if ever I made the same blunder... I would personally never live it down!
