AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Rhondda Cynon Taf we have encountered a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part a result of people not knowing how to use it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to each other on the car.

So, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Since the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely don't crank the engine - not even to shift it away from the pump. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you may likely have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant situation to deal with in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Having water in the diesel or petrol can certainly contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed fully, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both situations very easily.

Bear in mind however that so long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a car parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel container sitting at the rear of the garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of private and business premises in Rhondda Cynon Taf to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a garage, as long as we are able to get to it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Tonyrefail (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a comprehensive Rhondda Cynon Taf Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to fill up your car in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) to fill the car. They will be able to take care of the normal troubles which may go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even dead batteries because of over-cranking.
