AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Gloucestershire we have identified increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mostly stemming from people not being totally sure the right way to work with it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to one another on the car.

Now, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And definitely take care not to switch on the engine - not even to shift it to a parking spot. In the instance that you have started the car you will almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a significant condition to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol can certainly lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both cases rather quickly.

Be aware though that in the event that the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one is going to be totally wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to an automobile parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel container lying in the rear of the garden containing old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial properties in Gloucestershire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few drums in an outbuilding, if we can get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Britain Bottom (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a complete Gloucestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to refill the car any time you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at cost) and fill the car. They will fix the usual problems which can go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
