AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Aberdeenshire we are discovering a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to some extent a result of motorists not being totally sure the way to to make use of (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to one another on the automobile.

So, what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since the product is primarily deionised water, it's just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it immediately. And of course be careful not to crank the engine - not even to maneuver it from the pump. In the event that you have started the car you may in all probability have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be a serious issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in your petrol or diesel is going to contribute to idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied fully, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both situations very swiftly.

Take note however that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one is going to be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to an automobile parking bay we are able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir in the rear of your premises with unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of private and business premises in Aberdeenshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several drums in a storage shed, providing we are able to reach it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Ellon (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a comprehensive Aberdeenshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to re-fill your automobile in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill your car or truck. They will be able to fix the normal issues which might go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even dead batteries due to over-cranking.
