AdBlue In your Fuel

In Cheshire we have seen an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially caused by people not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (remember: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly next to each other on the car.

So, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained at once. And most certainly take care not to start up the vehicle - not even to relocate it off the pump. If you did start the car you may probably need to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be an important matter to deal with in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in the petrol or diesel is going to contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both cases pretty expediently.

Keep in mind that whenever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to parking bay we will be able to reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

We have been called out to many private and commercial premises in Cheshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.

Wrong Fuel Knutsford - Knutsford Fuel Rescue

I had appreciated a perfect evening cycling during the weekend and was feeling pleased the following day as I headed out to assist a new family holidaying in Knutsford. They had stopped after adding diesel into their SEAT, and they were close to an hour's travel away. I got there at their car and smiled as I listened to the wife telling her husband off for actually being so daft. "Exactly how could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I wanted to tell her that this problem takes place regularly in Cheshire and that it's nothing to stress about, but he in spite of everything had an ear bashing. Unlucky chap. At any rate, I drained the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the right fuel. While watching them drive down the road I mouthed farewell and pondered on what her indoors would say to me if I did the exact same thing... I'd never ever live it down!

He said, "This is only the third time I have put fuel in my car since I got it and I do not know how to handle it." He was also scared since his step father had just purchased him the car.

This was the night shift. It was about 2am and nobody was around. It was rather quiet until now, and me and Paul were relaxing looking through a couple of old newspapers. It was a rare tranquil time in Cheshire. Actually it was indeed so peaceful that when the telephone inevitably rang I jumped with surprise! The motorist on the phone told me: "I've finished my evening shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in my diesel Skoda in error". I told him to inform us where he was and we set off, arriving in Knutsford under half an hour later. The wrong fuel was cleaned from the car and he said thanks a lot for coming so rapidly. As we were going back to the depot we noticed two girls at the side of the highway who appeared to have a flat. Obviously we pulled over to help them change it, much to their elation.

Wrong Fuel Knutsford - Knutsford Fuel Rescue

I had a terrific evening fishing during the weekend and felt delighted the next day as I set off to help a young family vacationing in Knutsford. They'd stopped after putting the wrong fuel in their Jaguar, and the car was close to half an hour away. I emerged at their position and smirked to myself as I heard to the woman telling off her spouse for being so silly. "Exactly how could you actually be able to fill the car up with the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to explain that this kind of thing occurs regularly in Cheshire and that it is absolutely nothing to get worried about, nonetheless he yet still got an ear bashing by his wife. Unfortunate lad. At any rate, I removed all of the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some appropriate fuel. While watching them drive off I shouted so long and thought about what her indoors would do to me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I'd never ever hear the end of it!
