AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Buckinghamshire we have found an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of drivers not understanding the way to work with it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to one another on the car.

So, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? As AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it asap. And obviously be careful not to switch on the motor - not even to shift it into a parking spot. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you may probably need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel will likely cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied fully, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both circumstances rather swiftly.

Bear in mind though that if the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will be thoroughly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to gain access to the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank sitting in the rear of your garden containing old, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of private and industrial properties in Buckinghamshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous drums in an outbuilding, providing we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it.

Fuel Rescue Great Horwood - Great Horwood Petrol in Diesel

I'd had a great evening golfing on my holiday and felt delighted with myself the following morning as I set off to aid a young couple away in Great Horwood. They had broken down after filling the wrong fuel in their Land Rover, and were approximately half an hour's drive away. I showed up at their car and smirked while I heard to the wife telling her partner off for actually being so stupid. "Exactly how could you conceivably find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I wanted to tell her that this happens continuously in Buckinghamshire and that it's truly nothing at all to be concerned about, nonetheless he yet still had an earful by his wife. Unfortunate guy. In any case, I drained the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and filled them up with the correct fuel. While watching them drive off I shouted farewell and pondered on what my wife would do to me if ever I did the very same thing... I'd personally never hear the end of it!
