AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Leicestershire we are encountering more and more examples of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a result of people not being totally sure the right way to use it (remember: it's actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? As AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

In the case you put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it at once. And obviously never switch on the car - not even to maneuver it to a parking bay. In the event that you did start the car you may in all likelihood have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually an important matter to handle in a car - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol may well trigger idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both circumstances quite expediently.

Remember though that if the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will likely be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a car parking spot we will be able to reach the storage and remove the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank in the back of your premises containing old, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of private and business properties in Leicestershire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or even a number of drums in a garage, if we are able to reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Norton-Juxta-Twycross (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a full Leicestershire Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill the car if you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump prices) and refill your automobile. They are also able to handle the standard problems that could accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
