AdBlue In Diesel
In Hertfordshire we are encountering an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of drivers not being totally sure how to use it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to each other on the car.
Now, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? As AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.
In case you put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And certainly never turn over the engine - not even to relocate it to a parking place. If perhaps you have started the car you may in all likelihood need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters replaced.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious situation to handle in a car - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in your petrol or diesel can potentially contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both situations very simply.
Remember that whenever the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will probably be totally water-logged and unusable.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a car parking spot we will be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

We have been called out to numerous privately owned and commercial properties in Hertfordshire to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps some drums in a shed, assuming that we are able to get to it, we could certainly empty it.
