AdBlue In Diesel
Throughout Devon we are noticing increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination when a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of drivers not knowing the way to work with it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to one another on the car.
Now, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing as the product is mainly deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.
If perhaps you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it immediately. And of course be careful not to start up the car - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. If perhaps you did start the car you may almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system purged and filters replaced.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally an important situation to address in a car - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Having water inside your petrol or diesel is likely to cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both cases quite swiftly.
Keep in mind however that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will be completely water-logged and ineffective.
Marine Fuel Drains
If you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a vehicle parking spot we can access the storage and remove the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}
Disposal of Waste Fuel
Have a fuel reservoir laying in the rear of the garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and business properties in Devon for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in a garage, as long as we can get to it, we are able to empty it.
