This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Gloucestershire we are encountering progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent due to people being unsure of the way to use it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained asap. And certainly never crank the vehicle - not even to relocate it to a parking spot. In cases where you did start the car you will in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important matter to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Having water inside your diesel or petrol will trigger idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both situations quite expediently.

Be aware that in the event that the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to an automobile parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}
