AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Somerset we have encountered an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree a result of people not knowing the right way to to make use of (take note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to each other on the car.

So, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Since the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Whenever you discover youself to be in this situation do not panic! Contact us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination service. Our technicians have the technical know-how and working experience to get you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be a serious issue to handle in an automobile - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank is likely to result in idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both cases rather simply.

Be aware however that in the event that the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one is going to be totally wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to an automobile parking spot we should be able to access the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir lying in the back of the garden full of unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and industrial properties in Somerset to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in an outbuilding, if we can access it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Now I am certainly not so interested in doing work Sundays, and last week was the same. I'd just left the family after a tasty dinner prepared for us by the missus, and I was on the way to help a man after he had filled the incorrect petrol in his Kia. He was situated in South Down hence it wasn't long before I arrived with him. As I arrived at the rear of the car and started work he told me "Thank the Lord! I had my attention on other considerations and failed to grasp that I have put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Have I caused some damage through starting it?" I revealed truth be told there should not be any problems and that I would remove the wrong fuel right away for him. It goes without saying that I got the contaminated fuel drained from the vehicle and filled up with some suitable fuel, and so yet another happy customer had the ability to carry on with his ride without the bother. The guy couldn't stop thanking me, and that is exactly what can make carrying out work on weekends in Somerset that tiny bit easier for me!
