AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Derbyshire we are finding more and more cases of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to some extent due to people not knowing the right way to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to one another on the car.

So, what's the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out asap. And certainly don't start up the car - not even to relocate it into a parking spot. Assuming you have started the vehicle you may in all likelihood need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant matter to handle in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel can lead to idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied properly, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both circumstances quite expediently.

Take note however that if the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to an automobile parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel reservoir in the back of your garden full of old, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several private and business properties in Derbyshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps some drums in a garage, assuming that we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Hope (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a comprehensive Derbyshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill the car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) and fill up the car. They can also handle any of the normal problems that may accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
