AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout East Sussex we are noticing an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent due to motorists not understanding how to to make use of (remember: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to each other on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing that the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it immediately. And obviously do not crank the motor - not even to move it into a parking spot. In case you did start the vehicle you may likely need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally an important matter to address in a car - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank can certainly result in idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of than water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both cases rather expediently.

Remember however that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

We've been called out to many domestic and commercial properties in East Sussex to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some drums in an outbuilding, if we are able to get to it, we can drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in St Helens (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a complete East Sussex Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill your automobile in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home.

Recent Fuel Drains in St Helens

A few reviews:

A young person who had only just passed his driving test had misfueled his MG by putting petrol in the diesel car at the station in St Helens. He said, "This is only the second occasion I have fuelled my car from the time when I bought it and I do not know how to handle it." He was also anxious as his step father had just recently bought him the car. He found us on the web and so called it right away, scared about what he needed to do. Our man on the phones told him that we could be there inside 45 minutes and to not touch the vehicle while waiting. We carried out the fuel drain on his car and he said how surprised he was it was taken care of so speedily and without any problem whatsoever.

Wrong Fuel Drain St Helens - St Helens Petrol in Diesel

This was certainly an unsociable time to be on the road. It was close to 3am and almost noone was about. It was quite uneventful until now, and me and Brian were relaxing reading through a few old magazines. It was a rare calm moment in East Sussex. It was indeed that tranquil that when my mobile rang I leaped! The person on the other end told me: "I only just finished my night shift and stupidly put petrol in the Renault in error". I told him to inform us exactly where he was located and we headed out, getting to him in St Helens no more than 30 minutes later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed from the motor and he said thanks a lot for arriving so quickly. As we were coming back home we noticed two ladies on the side of the road who seemed to have a puncture. Obviously we pulled over to help them change it, to their delight.
