AdBlue In Diesel

In Wiltshire we have seen an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to some extent due to drivers not understanding how to to make use of (important: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to each other on the automobile.

Well, exactly what is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel car? As AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And of course take care not to start up the engine - not even to move it from the pump. Assuming you did start the vehicle you will in all likelihood have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be a significant condition to address in a car - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in fuel will often cause idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed effectively, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both circumstances very simply.

Take note that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one is going to be totally wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir laying in the back of your premises containing old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and commercial premises in Wiltshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps some drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Winsley (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a complete Wiltshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to refill your car if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at cost) and fill your car or truck. They can also take care of any of the normal issues that could go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even flat batteries due to over-cranking.
