AdBlue In Diesel

In Essex we have encountered an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of drivers being unsure of the way to work with it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Since the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

If in case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it asap. And of course take care not to crank the motor - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. If you have started the vehicle you will likely need to have the full fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, can be an important matter to address in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your petrol or diesel is likely to bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both situations very easily.

Bear in mind that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one is going to be totally water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a vehicle parking spot we can access the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank at the rear of your premises containing unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial properties in Essex for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of containers in a garage, as long as we are able to reach it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Chappel (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a full Essex Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to refill your car any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill the car. They will take care of any of the typical problems which can go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Chappel - Chappel Wrong Fuel Drain

A person phoned us from Chappel to say he had mistakenly piped petrol in his diesel Mazda. "Unbelievable! I can't believe I put unleaded in my lovely diesel car!" It took the fuel drainer roughly fifty minutes to completely drain the contaminated fuel from the car. He totally flushed the fuel system and after that put clean fuel in the vehicle. The customer was very pleased and it didn't cost him dealership rates to have the work properly completed.
