AdBlue In your Fuel
In Hammersmith and Fulham we have seen a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of drivers not being aware of the right way to work with it (please note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to each other on the automobile.
So, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because the product is mainly ionised water, it's like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.
In the case you put AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it right away. And most definitely be careful not to turn over the engine - not even to shift it off the pump. If perhaps you did start the car you will most likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question an important situation to address in a car - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Having water in diesel or petrol can certainly contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both cases quite simply.
You should know though that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will likely be wholly water-logged and ineffective.
Marine Fuel Drains
If you find you have the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a car or truck parking bay we can reach the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}
Removal of Waste Fuel
Have a fuel reservoir laying at the back of the garden containing aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and industrial properties in Hammersmith and Fulham for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or even a number of drums in a storage shed, providing we are able to get to it, we can empty it for you.
