AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Shropshire we have noticed a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially a result of drivers not understanding how to to make use of (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to one another on the automobile.

So, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel car? As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

In case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained immediately. And certainly never switch on the motor - not even to maneuver it from the pump. In the instance that you have started the car you will very likely need to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly an important issue to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water in your fuel can bring about idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with fully, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of than water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both situations very swiftly.

Bear in mind though that as long as the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to access the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank lying in the rear of your premises full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of private and industrial premises in Shropshire to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a garage, as long as we are able to reach it, we can empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Loppington (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a comprehensive Shropshire Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to fill up the car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill up your vehicle. They can also handle any of the normal issues that might come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even dead batteries due to over-cranking.
