AdBlue In Diesel

All around County Durham we are identifying a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mostly thanks to motorists not being totally sure how to use it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

Phone us if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to handle every type of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally a serious condition to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel can potentially produce idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both situations pretty swiftly.

Be aware though that if the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a car parking bay we are able to reach the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir sitting at the back of the garden full of old, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many private and commercial properties in County Durham to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in a shed, provided that we are able to access it, we can drain it.
