AdBlue In Diesel

All around Wandsworth we have found a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree a result of drivers being unsure of the right way to to make use of (please note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to each other on the automobile.

Well, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As the product is predominantly deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you end up in this scenario don?t panic! Call us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination company. Our technicians possess the specialised know-how and experience to get you back on the road promptly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel can potentially produce idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both circumstances pretty quickly.

Keep in mind however that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

We have been called out to several domestic and commercial premises in Wandsworth to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.
