AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Staffordshire we are noticing a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by people not being aware of how to work with it (please note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to each other on the car.

So, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? As the product is mostly ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And definitely be careful not to turn over the motor - not even to move it off of the pump. In the event that you have started the vehicle you may in all probability have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely a significant situation to address in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in petrol or diesel will result in idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both circumstances pretty swiftly.

Remember though that as long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will likely be completely wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a car or truck parking spot we can gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir sitting in the rear of your garden containing out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial premises in Staffordshire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in a shed, assuming that we can get to it, we can drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Haughton (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full Staffordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill your automobile if you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) to refill your vehicle. They will take care of the typical issues which might accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Haughton - Haughton Vehicle Misfuel

A guy had stopped just near a street in Haughton. His Audi engine had ceased working and he'd no clue what was the problem until he realised he put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He called us to get a fuel drain and it was then when he told us: "I can't believe that I did not know that I put the wrong fuel in my car." He claimed that he had gotten very little sleep the evening before and that could have been the reason.
