AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Leicestershire we are noticing more and more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially a result of people not being totally sure the way to use it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.

So, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Because AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

If you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And most definitely take care not to switch on the vehicle - not even to move it from the pump. If you have started the vehicle you will most likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually a serious matter to address in an automobile - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank is going to contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of fully, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both circumstances quite swiftly.

Be aware however that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to an automobile parking spot we will be able to access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Got an old fuel reservoir in the rear of your garden full of out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and commercial properties in Leicestershire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps some drums in a garage, assuming that we can reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in South Wigston (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a comprehensive Leicestershire Out of Fuel Service. We will help to fill up your automobile in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home.

They are also able to fix the standard problems that may accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, as well as dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Removal South Wigston - South Wigston Fuel Removal

I had a terrific day cycling during my off day and felt pleased the next day as I set out to aid a new family on holiday in South Wigston. They'd stopped after inserting diesel into their Citroen, and were approximately half an hour away. I got there at their location and laughed as I listened to the woman telling her spouse off for actually being so confused. "How could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I tried to explain that this happens continuously in Leicestershire and that it is nothing at all to get worried about, however he still had an ear bashing by his missus. I felt genuine sympathy for the lad. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed all of the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some proper fuel. As they drove away I mouthed good-bye and considered what my wife would tell me if perhaps I did the exact same thing... I would never hear the end of it!
