AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Suffolk we are finding progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is in part stemming from motorists not knowing the right way to use it (be aware: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Now, what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is predominantly deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained right away. And obviously do not start the vehicle - not even to relocate it into a parking area. In cases where you have started the car you would almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question a serious condition to take care of in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel can certainly lead to idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both cases very easily.

Be aware that so long as the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one is going to be completely wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a car or truck parking spot we are able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel container at the rear of your premises containing unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial premises in Suffolk for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few containers in a shed, provided that we are able to access it, we can drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Bungay (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a complete Suffolk Out of Fuel Service. We can help to refill your vehicle any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) to fill up your vehicle. They will fix the normal problems that may go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Bungay - Bungay Wrong Fuel Drain

A person contacted us from his place on a street in Bungay. He explained, "My vehicle (a Mitsubishi) is not starting and is generating awful sounds when I flip the key." He said that he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle however believed he would solve the problem by putting extra Diesel on top. We showed up promptly, did the fuel drain and filled it up once more with clean Diesel. He said after that he'd be sure to tell people not to fill up on top of the incorrect fuel but to have it drained immediately.
