AdBlue In Diesel

In Hampshire we are identifying a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mostly a result of motorists not being totally sure the right way to use it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to each other on the car.

Well, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that the product is primarily deionised water, it's just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

In the case you put AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it asap. And most definitely do not start the engine - not even to shift it into a parking place. If you have started the vehicle you would most likely need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely an important condition to deal with in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol is likely to bring about idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both cases pretty simply.

Take note however that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel reservoir laying in the back of the garden full of unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of private and business premises in Hampshire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in a shed, assuming that we are able to reach it, we can certainly drain it for you.
