AdBlue Contamination

All over Berkshire we have found more and more examples of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partly a result of motorists not being totally sure how to use it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And absolutely be careful not to start the car - not even to move it to a parking place. Assuming you did start the car you would in all likelihood have to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a significant issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel tank will likely trigger idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain as compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both cases pretty expediently.

Take note however that if the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will probably be wholly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a car parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir sitting in the rear of your garden with out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and commercial properties in Berkshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even numerous drums in a shed, provided that we can access it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Donnington (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a full Berkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill your vehicle if you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) and fill up your vehicle. They will be able to take care of the normal problems which could accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, as well as flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
