AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Nottinghamshire we are finding increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of motorists not understanding the way to use it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to one another on the automobile.

Well, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

If you find you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And definitely be careful not to start the vehicle - not even to move it off of the pump. If you did start the vehicle you would almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious issue to deal with in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank may well produce idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both cases quite expediently.

You should know however that in the event that the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to parking spot we can gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank in the back of your premises containing old, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many domestic and industrial properties in Nottinghamshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps some containers in a storage shed, as long as we are able to access it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Kelham (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a complete Nottinghamshire Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill the car in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) to fill your vehicle. They will deal with any of the common issues which may go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
