AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Somerset we are noticing a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to motorists not being totally sure the way to work with it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to one another on the car.

So, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? As the product is mostly deionised water, it is almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And absolutely be careful not to start the vehicle - not even to relocate it from the pump. In cases where you did start the car you would very likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be an important condition to handle in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank is going to result in idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both cases fairly quickly.

Keep in mind however that whenever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will likely be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to an automobile parking bay we are able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank lying at the rear of your premises full of aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of private and commercial properties in Somerset to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps some drums in a storage shed, assuming that we can reach it, we can certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Highbury (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a comprehensive Somerset Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to refill your car in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill your car or truck. They will take care of any of the common troubles which could go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, as well as flat batteries because of over-cranking.
