AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Kent we have discovered a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is in part caused by people not being aware of the way to work with it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

Phone us if it turns out you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can take care of different types of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant situation to handle in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel will likely result in idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both circumstances very easily.

Take note that as long as the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a car or truck parking bay we are able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank sitting at the rear of your garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial properties in Kent to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in a shed, if we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Newbury (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a full Kent Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to refill your car in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill up your car. They will handle any of the typical troubles that can go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
