AdBlue Contamination

In Gloucestershire we are noticing a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by motorists not understanding how to work with it (take note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to one another on the vehicle.

So, what's the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it is just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out at once. And most definitely don't start the vehicle - not even to move it away from the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you may likely have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be an important situation to handle in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel is likely to contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both circumstances very simply.

You should know though that as long as the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one is going to be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to gain access to the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container placed at the back of your garden containing unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of private and commercial properties in Gloucestershire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in an outbuilding, provided that we can reach it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Winstone (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a full Gloucestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to refill your automobile if you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump price) to refill the car. They can also fix the most common troubles that may go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even dead batteries because of over-cranking.
