AdBlue In Diesel

All around Essex we are identifying a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part due to drivers not being aware of how to use it (note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to one another on the car.

Now, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing as the product is mainly ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it immediately. And of course don't turn over the motor - not even to shift it from the pump. If you have started the car you would in all probability need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a significant matter to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can certainly lead to idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of properly, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out than water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both circumstances fairly expediently.

Be aware that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will likely be wholly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near to parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage and remove the fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

We have been called out to numerous privately owned and industrial properties in Essex for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.
