AdBlue Contamination

All around Greater Manchester we have encountered increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mainly stemming from people not knowing the right way to use it (please note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Since the product is mostly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it immediately. And of course don't start the motor - not even to shift it from the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you will likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly an important matter to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel can potentially contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out when compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both circumstances rather expediently.

Be aware however that any time the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will probably be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked near to a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to reach the storage and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel tank sitting in the rear of your premises with unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and commercial properties in Greater Manchester to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few drums in a shed, if we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Run out of fuel in Wallsuches (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a full Greater Manchester Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to fill up your car in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home.
