AdBlue In Diesel

All around Derbyshire we have encountered an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly as a result of drivers not knowing the way to to make use of (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

If in case you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And most definitely don't start up the motor - not even to relocate it into a parking area. In the event that you did start the car you will likely need to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question a significant issue to handle in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in fuel can certainly lead to idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both circumstances fairly quickly.

You should know though that if ever the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one is going to be completely wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to an automobile parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container at the back of your premises full of aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many private and industrial properties in Derbyshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or even a few drums in a shed, assuming that we are able to access it, we could certainly empty it.

Out of fuel in Pinxton (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a comprehensive Derbyshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill the car if you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home.

Fuel Rescue Pinxton - Pinxton Fuel Drain

A person contacted us from his residence on a road in Pinxton. He said, "My vehicle (a Skoda) is not starting and is creating terrible noises when I flip the key." He said that he had put petrol in his diesel car but then imagined he would resolve the problem by putting additional Diesel on top. We were on scene quickly, carried out the fuel drain and filled him up once again with clean Diesel. He said after that he'd be sure to inform people not to fill up in addition to the incorrect fuel but to have it drained promptly.
