AdBlue In Diesel

All around Somerset we are noticing an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a result of people not knowing how to work with it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right near to one another on the car.

Now, precisely what is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

Whenever you end up in this position don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination business. Our technicians possess the specialised knowledge and working experience to get you back on your way quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a significant issue to take care of in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel will lead to idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both circumstances fairly quickly.

Remember though that if ever the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a car parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir placed in the rear of your garden with unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many domestic and commercial premises in Somerset to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even several drums in an outbuilding, providing we are able to access it, we are able to drain it.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Capton (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a full Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up your automobile in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump prices) and refill your automobile. They will deal with any of the normal troubles which could accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Capton - Capton Vehicle Misfuel

I had enjoyed a fantastic day cycling on my holiday and was feeling satisfied the following day as I set out to help a new family on vacation in Capton. They'd conked out after putting the wrong fuel in their Citroen, and were roughly an hour's drive away. I showed up at their location and laughed to myself while I heard to the woman chastising her spouse for actually being so stupid. "Exactly how could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I wanted to explain that this comes to pass on daily basis in Somerset and that it is absolutely nothing to worry about, even so he in spite of everything had his ear bent. Poor guy. Anyways, I removed all of the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and gave it some proper fuel. As they drove away I shouted farewell and thought about what her indoors would tell me if I did the very same thing... I'd personally never live it down!
