AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Greater Manchester we have discovered a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is in part stemming from drivers being unsure of the way to work with it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained immediately. And of course be careful not to start the engine - not even to maneuver it into a parking bay. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you would almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question a serious condition to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Having water inside your petrol or diesel can certainly produce idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both circumstances quite easily.

Keep in mind though that if the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will likely be completely water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to an automobile parking spot we should be able to access the storage and remove the fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel container at the rear of the garden containing unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several domestic and commercial premises in Greater Manchester to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or even a few containers in a garage, assuming that we are able to access it, we can empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Haugh (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full Greater Manchester Out of Fuel Service. We can help to refill the car if you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump prices) to fill up your car or truck. They are also able to take care of any of the typical troubles that may come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Haugh - Haugh Wrong Fuel Assist

A while back a motorist called us soon after his Toyota broke down in the middle of a road in Haugh. He had accidentally put petrol in his diesel vehicle and had managed to get as far as the street before needing to stop. It was still early in the day and our technician, who lives not far away, was with him in about a quarter hour. We were able to remove the wrong fuel and put clean diesel back into the car. "Thank you for your immediate response, especially at 4 a.m., I really am grateful for it."

Recent Fuel Drains in Haugh

Various reviews:

We performed a wrong fuel retrieval job outside a lovely property in Haugh recently. "I had put unleaded in my diesel car and was able to very nearly reach home when my car broke down." Our specialist went out, despite the fact that it was quite late at night, and completed a fuel drain and purge on the Fiat to everyone's satisfaction.

Fuel Rescue Haugh - Haugh Vehicle Misfuel

A driver who had put petrol in his diesel MINI called us for assistance at the Texaco petrol station in Haugh. He decided to fill up before continuing on to the nearby holiday park . "I put petrol rather than diesel which wasn't a smart way to begin to our getaway." It was definitely no challenge whatsoever for our technician to go and do the fuel drain. We hope everyone had a good holiday break.

Fuel Drain Haugh - Haugh Fuel Removal

I enjoyed a wonderful afternoon golfing on my off day and felt pleased with myself the following day as I set out to help a young couple on vacation in Haugh. They had broken down after inserting petrol in their Volkswagen, and they were about half an hour away. I arrived at their position and smirked to myself while I listened to the wife telling her hubby off for actually being so stupid. "Just how could you even be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this happens frequently in Greater Manchester and that it's nothing to worry about, however he still got an earful by his wife. Unfortunate lad. Anyhow, I drained out all the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and gave them some correct fuel. While watching them drive off I shouted farewell and pondered on what her indoors would ask me if ever I made the exact same error... I'd never ever live it down!
