AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Midlothian we have discovered increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a degree caused by people not being aware of how to work with it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to one another on the car.

Well, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Contact us if you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to attend to every type of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the petrol or diesel can easily trigger idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both cases pretty swiftly.

Be aware though that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to access the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container at the rear of the garden with unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and commercial properties in Midlothian to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in a garage, as long as we are able to get to it, we can certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Roslin (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a full Midlothian Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to fill up the car if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) and refill the car. They can also handle the standard issues which may accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Roslin - Roslin Wrong Fuel

I'd had a fantastic evening fishing during my holiday and felt contented with myself the following day as I was en route to assist a new couple away in Roslin. They pulled over after filling the wrong fuel in their Vauxhall, and were close to half an hour's drive away. I arrived at their location and smirked as I listened to the woman berating her man for turning out to be so silly. "Exactly how could you even manage to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I tried to clarify that this situation takes place all the time in Midlothian and that it is absolutely nothing to worry about, even so he still had his ear bent by his wife. I felt sorry for the boy. Anyway, I extracted the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some proper fuel. As they drove down the road I mouthed good bye and pondered on what her indoors would ask me in the event that I made the exact same error... I would personally under no circumstances live it down!
