AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Gloucestershire we are encountering an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree thanks to motorists not being totally sure how to use it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right near to each other on the car.

So, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As the product is mainly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And absolutely do not start up the engine - not even to shift it from the pump. In the event that you did start the car you will probably have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually a significant condition to address in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol is likely to lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both circumstances very easily.

Bear in mind though that in the event that the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir sitting in the back of your garden with old, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial properties in Gloucestershire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in a shed, as long as we can reach it, we could certainly empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Codrington (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a comprehensive Gloucestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to re-fill your vehicle if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill the car. They will deal with the common issues that could accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

A lady from Codrington with her kids in her diesel Jaguar had filled her car with £20 of petrol at the filling station. She phoned us sobbing and genuinely worried as she had never wrong fuelled previously and did not know what might happen to her vehicle in doing so. We assured her that everything would be okay and that she would be up and running soon. When we arrived she was visible upset but as our engineer started work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she noticed that help was at hand and her car wasn't ruined.
