AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Kent we have noticed progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree stemming from motorists not being aware of the right way to work with it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly next to each other on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is mostly ionised water, it is actually just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out asap. And of course be careful not to crank the motor - not even to maneuver it to a parking bay. In case you did start the vehicle you may almost certainly need to have the full fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question a serious issue to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel may contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both circumstances rather easily.

You should know however that whenever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will be wholly wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to parking spot we can access the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel reservoir laying at the rear of the garden containing aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several private and business premises in Kent to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous drums in a shed, assuming that we can access it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Lenham (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a complete Kent Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to re-fill your car in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) to refill your vehicle. They are also able to handle the most common troubles which could go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
