AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Birmingham we are discovering increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent stemming from motorists being unsure of the right way to to make use of (remember: it's actually not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Since the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And absolutely don't crank the engine - not even to maneuver it into a parking place. In case you did start the vehicle you may in all likelihood have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious condition to handle in a vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol can certainly cause idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both cases quite simply.

Take note that whenever the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will likely be completely wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a vehicle parking bay we can reach the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank placed in the back of your premises full of out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial premises in Birmingham to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps some containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we can get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Old Oscott (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a full Birmingham Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to refill the car in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) and fill up your vehicle. They will fix the standard troubles that might go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
