AdBlue Contamination

In Northamptonshire we are identifying progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is in part thanks to drivers not knowing the right way to work with it (pay attention: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to one another on the car.

Now, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that the product is primarily ionised water, it is like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained asap. And obviously never switch on the engine - not even to relocate it away from the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you would in all probability need to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious matter to handle in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel can certainly contribute to idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of fully, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both situations quite easily.

You should know though 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 installed seeing as the previous one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to an automobile parking spot we will be able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel tank lying in the back of your premises with out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many private and commercial premises in Northamptonshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps several containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to get to it, we could certainly empty it.

We can get out to fill up your car any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home.
