AdBlue In Diesel

In Somerset we are noticing increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly caused by motorists not being totally sure the way to work with it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

So, what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Because AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

Contact us in the event that you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to fix all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a serious condition to take care of in an automobile - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your petrol or diesel is likely to result in idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both circumstances pretty quickly.

Keep in mind though that if ever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored near to parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel tank sitting in the rear of the garden containing aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several domestic and business properties in Somerset to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even several containers in a garage, providing we can reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Locking (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a complete Somerset Out of Fuel Service. We will help to fill up the car if you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) and fill the car. They will be able to fix the standard problems that can go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Locking - Locking Wrong Fuel Assist

A person phoned us from Locking to say he had unfortunately pumped petrol into his diesel Peugeot. "What a nightmare! How could I put unleaded in my diesel car!" It took the engineer about fifty minutes to completely drain the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. He totally cleaned the fuel lines, filter and pumps and after that put fresh diesel in the car. The customer was very pleased and it didn't cost him car dealership rates to get the work professionally performed.
