AdBlue In Diesel

In Moray we have found more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially thanks to people not understanding how to use it (note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to each other on the automobile.

So, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

If in case you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it asap. And definitely be careful not to turn over the motor - not even to shift it away from the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you will most likely need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually an important situation to deal with in a vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol may contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out than water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both circumstances quite easily.

Remember however that whenever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a vehicle parking spot we are able to gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel reservoir lying in the rear of your premises full of aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and business properties in Moray to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a garage, provided that we are able to access it, we can drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Fochabers (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a full Moray Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to fill up the car if you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) and fill up your vehicle. They will be able to fix the most common issues which could come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

The customer was very pleased and it didn't cost him dealer prices to have the task properly performed.
