AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Essex we have noticed an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly thanks to motorists not understanding the way to use it (pay attention: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to each other on the automobile.

Now, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? As AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And certainly do not crank the car - not even to relocate it into a parking area. If you have started the car you will likely have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a serious matter to take care of in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel will bring about idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied fully, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both circumstances fairly simply.

Be aware however that if ever the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will likely be totally wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir in the back of your garden with unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and commercial premises in Essex to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in a garage, assuming that we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in East Horndon (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a comprehensive Essex Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to refill the car any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) to refill the car. They will handle any of the usual troubles which could go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.
