AdBlue In Diesel

All over Shropshire we have identified more and more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part due to people being unsure of the right way to use it (note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to each other on the vehicle.

So, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Because the product is predominantly deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it asap. And definitely do not turn over the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking spot. If you did start the car you may likely have to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question an important matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel can easily result in idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both situations rather easily.

Bear in mind though that as long as the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one is going to be wholly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored close to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank sitting in the rear of your premises with unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and business premises in Shropshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in an outbuilding, as long as we can reach it, we can drain it.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Papermill Bank (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a comprehensive Shropshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill your vehicle in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) to refill the car. They can also handle any of the usual issues that can accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even flat batteries because of over-cranking.
