AdBlue Contamination

All around Norfolk we have seen more and more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent caused by people not understanding the right way to to make use of (take note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to one another on the car.

Now, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In case you get in this position do not panic! Call us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination business. Our technicians have got the practical knowledge and working experience to get you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel is going to result in idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both situations fairly simply.

Bear in mind that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to access the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Got an old fuel reservoir sitting in the rear of your premises full of out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and business premises in Norfolk to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a shed, assuming that we are able to access it, we can drain it.

Fuel Rescue Barnham Broom - Barnham Broom Petrol in Diesel

I had a great afternoon fishing on my holiday and felt delighted with myself the following morning as I was en route to help a new couple holidaying in Barnham Broom. They had conked out after inserting diesel in their Peugeot, and the car was roughly half an hour's travel away. I arrived at their position and smiled as I heard to the lady berating her hubby for turning out to be so silly. "Precisely how could you even be able to fill the car up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I wanted to tell her that this situation goes on on daily basis in Norfolk and that it's nothing at all to fret about, however he yet still had his ear bent. Poor guy. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed all the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. Watching them drive away I mouthed so long and considered what my missus would do to me if I did the very same thing... I would personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
