AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Berkshire we are identifying more and more cases of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partially due to people being unsure of the right way to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to each other on the automobile.

Well, what's the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Because AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained right away. And obviously take care not to switch on the car - not even to move it off the pump. Assuming you did start the car you will likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly an important matter to address in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol is going to bring about idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both circumstances pretty quickly.

Be aware though that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a car or truck parking bay we are able to gain access to the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir placed at the back of your garden full of unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial premises in Berkshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or possibly even several drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can drain it for you.

Out of fuel in Birch Hill (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a comprehensive Berkshire Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to refill the car any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) to fill your car.
