AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Somerset we are finding increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a result of motorists not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to one another on the automobile.

So, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Since AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it asap. And of course do not turn over the car - not even to shift it to a parking area. In case you have started the vehicle you will most likely need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question a significant situation to handle in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank may produce idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both situations rather quickly.

You should know that as long as the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will likely be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container sitting in the rear of your garden containing unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many private and commercial properties in Somerset to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several containers in a shed, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Podimore (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a comprehensive Somerset Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to refill the car in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) and fill up the car. They will be able to take care of any of the most common issues which can go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Podimore - Podimore Fuel Drain

A gentleman called us from his home on a close in Podimore. He said, "My vehicle (a Skoda) is not running and is creating awful sounds when I turn the ignition." He said that he had put unleaded in his diesel vehicle however thought he would fix the problem by putting more Diesel on top. We got there promptly, did the drain and filled it up once more with untainted Diesel. He said that he would be absolutely sure to advise people not to fill up over the incorrect fuel but to have it cleaned out right away.
