AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Falkirk we have discovered a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially a result of drivers not understanding how to use it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing as the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained immediately. And of course don't crank the car - not even to shift it off of the pump. In cases where you did start the vehicle you will in all probability need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a significant issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel tank can potentially trigger idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out than water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both situations pretty easily.

Remember however that as long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to an automobile parking spot we will be able to access the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Have an old fuel tank at the rear of your premises full of unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and business properties in Falkirk for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even some containers in an outbuilding, providing we can access it, we can certainly drain it.

Wrong Fuel Boness - Boness Wrong Fuel Drain

A motorist had conked out just off a street in Boness. His Mitsubishi motor had stopped operating and he had no idea what was faulty until eventually he noticed he put petrol in his diesel vehicle. He rang us to request a fuel drain and that is when he explained to us: "I can't believe that I didn't realise that I put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had got virtually no rest the day before and that could have been the reason.
