AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Lincolnshire we have seen progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partially a result of drivers not knowing the way to work with it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to one another on the car.

So, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained asap. And most definitely take care not to crank the engine - not even to move it off of the pump. If perhaps you have started the car you will in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually an important condition to deal with in an automobile - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water in your fuel is likely to lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both cases very easily.

Take note though that any time the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one is going to be totally wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we can access the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container placed in the back of the garden containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several private and industrial properties in Lincolnshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several drums in a storage shed, if we can get to it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Elsham (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a complete Lincolnshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to re-fill your automobile in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home.

They can also take care of the most common troubles which could go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
