AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Somerset we are finding a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree thanks to motorists not understanding the way to to make use of (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Since AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you find yourself in this predicament don?t fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our technicians have got the specialised knowledge and experience to have you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be an important condition to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Having water inside your diesel or petrol will likely trigger idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain than water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both circumstances fairly expediently.

You should know though that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will probably be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a car parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Got an old fuel reservoir laying at the rear of the garden full of unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of private and business properties in Somerset to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some drums in a shed, assuming that we can get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.
