AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Croydon we are encountering a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of motorists being unsure of how to to make use of (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it at once. And obviously don't start up the engine - not even to shift it off the pump. In cases where you did start the vehicle you will probably need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually a significant situation to deal with in an automobile - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel tank will often produce idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both situations pretty swiftly.

Take note however that if the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir lying at the rear of your premises full of unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial properties in Croydon for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to get to it, we are able to drain it.
