AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Derbyshire we have encountered progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is in part due to motorists not knowing how to use it (remember: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to one another on the car.

So, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And of course be careful not to switch on the vehicle - not even to move it off the pump. In case you have started the vehicle you will in all probability have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, can be an important matter to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Having water in diesel or petrol can cause idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove than water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both circumstances quite simply.

You should know however that whenever the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated near to a car parking bay we can gain access to the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir lying at the rear of the garden with aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many domestic and business premises in Derbyshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some containers in an outbuilding, if we can reach it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Shirebrook (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a full Derbyshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill your automobile in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill up the car. They will be able to fix any of the typical problems that could accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
