AdBlue In your Fuel

In Buckinghamshire we have encountered an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part a result of people being unsure of how to work with it (important: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Now, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Because AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it at once. And definitely take care not to switch on the vehicle - not even to maneuver it from the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you would almost certainly need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question a serious matter to handle in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel tank is likely to result in idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of than water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both cases rather expediently.

Remember 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 simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be completely wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to parking bay we should be able to gain access to the storage and remove the fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel tank placed in the back of the garden full of unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial premises in Buckinghamshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few drums in a storage shed, provided that we are able to access it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Skirmett (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a full Buckinghamshire Out of Fuel Service. We will help to re-fill your automobile any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and fill up your automobile. They are also able to take care of the typical troubles which might accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
