AdBlue Contamination

All over Norfolk we are discovering increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mostly as a result of people not being totally sure the right way to work with it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to one another on the automobile.

Well, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? As the product is primarily ionised water, it is like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you put AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it immediately. And definitely be careful not to turn over the engine - not even to move it into a parking bay. Assuming you have started the car you will probably have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important issue to deal with in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank will result in idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both cases very expediently.

Remember however that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will probably be completely wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a car or truck parking spot we are able to reach the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir sitting at the back of your premises containing unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of private and industrial properties in Norfolk to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several drums in an outbuilding, providing we can reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.

They can also deal with the standard issues that could go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or maybe flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Worstead - Worstead Petrol in Diesel

I had a fantastic evening hiking on my holiday and was feeling satisfied with myself the following morning as I set out to help a young family away in Worstead. They had conked out after filling the wrong fuel in their SEAT, and they were close to an hour's travel away. I showed up at their location and laughed while I listened to the girl chastising her partner for being so foolish. "Just how could you even find a way to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I tried to tell her that this comes to pass all the time in Norfolk and that it is nothing at all to be concerned about, nonetheless he all the same got an ear bashing by his better half. Poor guy. In any case, I removed all the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave it some proper fuel. Watching while they drove away I shouted bon voyage and thought about what my missus would do to me in the event that I did the exact same thing... I'd personally never ever live it down!
