AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Gloucestershire we are discovering increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partially as a result of motorists not knowing the way to to make use of (remember: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what's the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Because the product is predominantly deionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

If you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it asap. And certainly take care not to turn over the car - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. Assuming you have started the car you may probably have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant situation to take care of in an automobile - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your fuel will often contribute to idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both situations quite quickly.

Keep in mind however that any time the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

We've been called out to a number of domestic and commercial properties in Gloucestershire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a number of drums in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it for you.
