AdBlue In Diesel

All over Hampshire we are discovering a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly due to motorists being unsure of how to work with it (please note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to each other on the car.

Well, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained asap. And most definitely be careful not to start up the motor - not even to move it off of the pump. Assuming you have started the car you would probably have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually a significant condition to deal with in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel tank may lead to idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both circumstances pretty quickly.

Take note however that any time the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to an automobile parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel container at the back of your premises full of unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and industrial properties in Hampshire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps several drums in a garage, providing we are able to access it, we could certainly empty it.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Gundleton (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a comprehensive Hampshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to fill up your automobile in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump price) and fill your vehicle. They will deal with any of the typical troubles which can accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Gundleton - Gundleton Petrol in Diesel

A couple weeks ago a young man contacted us right after his SEAT cut out in the middle of a road in Gundleton. He had mistakenly put petrol in his diesel car and got to the street before needing to pull up. It was actually in the early hours of the day and our engineer, who lives close by, was with him in less than 15 minutes. We managed to remove the wrong fuel and put fresh diesel yet again in the car. "Thank you for your prompt response, particularly at 1 a.m., I truly am grateful for it."
