AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Gloucestershire we have discovered progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree as a consequence of motorists not understanding how to work with it (remember: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to each other on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car? As the product is predominantly deionised water, it is just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

If you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out at once. And absolutely do not start up the car - not even to relocate it into a parking spot. If perhaps you have started the car you will almost certainly need to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious issue to take care of in an automobile - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel will likely trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both circumstances quite quickly.

Remember that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to an automobile parking spot we will be able to reach the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial premises in Gloucestershire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.
