AdBlue In Diesel

In Lincolnshire we have identified a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a result of drivers being unsure of the right way to to make use of (note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to each other on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that the product is mainly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And certainly do not start up the car - not even to relocate it to a parking spot. If you have started the car you will in all likelihood have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious matter to handle in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank will likely trigger idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of fully, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both circumstances fairly simply.

Remember though that in the event that the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one is going to be totally water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a car parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank sitting in the back of your premises containing aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and business premises in Lincolnshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in a garage, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can certainly empty it.

Run out of fuel in South Elkington (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete Lincolnshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to re-fill your vehicle if you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) and fill your car or truck.
