AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Norfolk we are noticing a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mostly caused by people not understanding how to use it (be aware: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to each other on the car.

So, exactly what is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Because AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And definitely be careful not to switch on the engine - not even to relocate it from the pump. If perhaps you have started the car you may in all likelihood have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a significant situation to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank will likely contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both cases pretty simply.

Bear in mind though that as long as the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will probably be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a car or truck parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container lying in the rear of your premises with old, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous private and business properties in Norfolk to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a garage, provided that we can reach it, we are able to empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Needham (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a full Norfolk Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to fill up your vehicle in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump prices) and fill up the car. They will be able to handle any of the usual problems that can go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.


Wrong Fuel Needham - Needham Fuel Drain

A man phoned us from Needham saying he unfortunately pumped petrol into his diesel Fiat. "What a pain! I can't believe I put unleaded in my nice diesel car!" It took our technician around 50 minutes to completely drain the contaminated fuel from the car. He meticulously flushed the fuel lines, filter and pumps and then put fresh diesel in the vehicle. The customer was very pleased and it didn't cost him car dealership prices to have the job professionally completed.


Recent Fuel Drains in Needham

Common fuel drain examples in Needham:

We not too long ago got a phone call about a guy who put the incorrect fuel in his Honda in Needham. He had ground to a halt on the street. "After putting petrol in my diesel car I didn't notice the problem up until the time I conked out. You cleared the wrong fuel from my car and had it running once again. I was amazed by both how quick you were and your rates". As you can imagine we arrived on the scene promptly and purged the engine after flushing all the petrol from the diesel tank. On arrival our technician said the customer was scowling, but was satisfied after the fuel drain.

Fuel Rescue Needham - Needham Vehicle Misfuel

This was the night shift. It was close to 3 in the morning and nobody was about. It had become quite uneventful so far, and Brian and I were sitting looking through a few old newspapers. It was a rare calm time in Norfolk. It was indeed that calm that when the phone finally rang I jumped! The voice on the opposite end stated: "I only just finished my overnight shift and incredibly filled petrol in the diesel Citroen in error". We got him to inform us where exactly he was located and we headed out, reaching him in Needham an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed from the car. He said many thanks for coming out so rapidly. As we were returning to base we noticed two young women at the edge of the highway who seemed to have a flat tyre. So we pulled up to change it, to their delight.

Petrol in Diesel Needham - Needham Fuel Drain

A gentleman phoned us from Needham saying he stupidly pumped the wrong fuel in his diesel Vauxhall. "Unbelievable! How could I put petrol in my lovely diesel car!" It took the technician roughly fifty minutes to fully drain the wrong fuel out of the car. He totally purged the fuel system and after that put fresh fuel in the car. The customer was very pleased and it didn't cost him dealership rates to get the task properly completed.
