AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Norfolk we are encountering increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partly a result of drivers not being aware of the right way to work with it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Since AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it immediately. And definitely take care not to turn over the motor - not even to shift it into a parking bay. In the instance that you did start the car you would most likely need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally a serious condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel may well trigger idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both cases pretty quickly.

Keep in mind that any time the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to access the storage and drain out the fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank lying at the back of your garden full of old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many private and business properties in Norfolk to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous drums in a garage, providing we can reach it, we could certainly empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Summerfield (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a full Norfolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to re-fill your automobile if you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at cost) to fill up your car or truck. They can also take care of any of the usual issues that can come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Summerfield - Summerfield Fuel Removal

A customer contacted us from his house on a close in Summerfield. He explained, "My vehicle (a Citroen) is not starting and is generating awful noises when I turn the key." He said that he had put unleaded in his diesel car but then believed he would resolve the issue by putting further Diesel on top. We got there quickly, performed the fuel drain and filled him up again with clean Diesel. He told us that he'd be absolutely sure to tell people not to fill up on top of the incorrect fuel but to get it cleaned out promptly.
