AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Hertfordshire we have found a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially a result of drivers not understanding the right way to use it (remember: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to one another on the car.

So, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Because AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely be careful not to switch on the engine - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. In the instance that you have started the car you will probably have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a significant issue to take care of in an automobile - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol is going to contribute to idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of fully, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both cases rather expediently.

You should know however that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will likely be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to an automobile parking spot we can access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank lying in the rear of your garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and industrial properties in Hertfordshire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in a garage, assuming that we are able to reach it, we are able to empty it.
