AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Gloucestershire we are identifying a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by drivers not being totally sure the way to use it (important: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it at once. And most definitely take care not to start up the vehicle - not even to move it off of the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you may probably have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious matter to handle in a car - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel can easily trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both cases pretty easily.

Remember though that any time the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked close to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

We've been called out to a number of domestic and commercial premises in Gloucestershire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a garage, if we can reach it, we can drain it.
