AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over County Durham we have found a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent due to drivers not being aware of how to use it (note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to one another on the vehicle.

So, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained asap. And absolutely take care not to turn over the car - not even to shift it from the pump. If you did start the vehicle you may in all probability need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally an important matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol may well trigger idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out properly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both situations fairly expediently.

Take note however that whenever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one is going to be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated near to a car or truck parking bay we are able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

We've been called out to a number of private and commercial premises in County Durham for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even numerous drums in a shed, assuming that we can access it, we can certainly empty it for you.
