AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Inverclyde we are encountering an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part stemming from people not being aware of the way to use it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to each other on the car.

So, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Because AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained immediately. And most definitely don't start the motor - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you will in all likelihood need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly an important issue to handle in an automobile - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water inside your diesel or petrol can potentially result in idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both situations very quickly.

Be aware however that whenever the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will be thoroughly wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a car parking spot we are able to access the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

We have been called out to many domestic and industrial properties in Inverclyde to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we can get to it, we are able to drain it for you.
