AdBlue Contamination

All over Gloucestershire we are noticing more and more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a result of people being unsure of how to use it (pay attention: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to each other on the car.

Well, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

In case you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely do not turn over the engine - not even to maneuver it from the pump. If you have started the car you will in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important condition to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank is likely to cause idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both cases fairly expediently.

Be aware that so long as the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will likely be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container sitting at the rear of your garden full of unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several private and commercial properties in Gloucestershire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a shed, as long as we are able to get to it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Ham (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a full Gloucestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to refill your automobile any time you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at cost) to refill your automobile. They will be able to take care of the usual problems that could come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Fuel Removal Ham - Ham Wrong Fuel

A gentleman had conked out off a road in Ham. His Audi engine had stopped functioning and he had no clue what was the problem until he noticed he had put petrol in his diesel vehicle. He rang us to get a fuel drain and that's when he told us: "I can't believe that I didn't know that I put the wrong fuel in my car." He stated that he had got very little rest the day before and that must have been precisely why.
