AdBlue In your Fuel

In Hertfordshire we have seen a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mainly as a result of people not knowing the way to to make use of (pay attention: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? As the product is mainly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely take care not to start up the motor - not even to relocate it into a parking area. In the instance that you have started the car you may probably have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly an important matter to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel tank will contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both circumstances rather quickly.

Keep in mind however that any time 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 is going to be wholly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

We've been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial premises in Hertfordshire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even several drums in a shed, provided that we are able to reach it, we are able to empty it for you.

Petrol in Diesel Potters Bar - Potters Bar Wrong Fuel in Car

A couple of days ago a youngster phoned us when his MG stopped along a street in Potters Bar. He had accidentally put unleaded in the diesel car and was only able to drive to the road before being forced to pull up. It was in the early hours of the morning and our technician, who resides close by, reached him in about a quarter hour. We were able to drain the wrong fuel and put clean diesel yet again in to the vehicle. "Sincere thanks to you for your fast response, and in particular at 5 a.m., I truly am grateful for it."
