AdBlue In Diesel

All around Norfolk we have seen a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mostly caused by people not knowing how to use it (be aware: it is actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to each other on the automobile.

Well, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Because AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is actually just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained at once. And obviously never switch on the motor - not even to maneuver it into a parking area. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you may most likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is certainly an important situation to address in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in your petrol or diesel can easily result in idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both cases quite expediently.

Be aware that in the event that the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to parking spot we will be able to reach the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank at the rear of the garden with unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many domestic and commercial premises in Norfolk to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps some containers in a storage shed, if we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Twyford (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a comprehensive Norfolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill your automobile any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) and refill your car. They will be able to fix any of the common troubles that can go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or maybe flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Twyford - Twyford Wrong Fuel Drain

Last friday a customer called us right after his MINI stopped along a road in Twyford. He had by mistake put petrol in the diesel car and got as far as the street before having to pull over. It was still in the early hours of the morning and our technical engineer, who stays nearby, reached him in less than a quarter hour. We were able to take out the wrong fuel and put clean diesel yet again in the vehicle. "Thank you for your timely response, particularly at 1 a.m., I truly am grateful for it."
