AdBlue In Diesel

All around Somerset we have discovered a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partially caused by people not being totally sure how to work with it (take note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

Give us a call in the event that you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily attend to all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant matter to handle in a car - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel will contribute to idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both circumstances rather swiftly.

You should know that if the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will probably be totally wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

We have been called out to quite a few private and business properties in Somerset to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages.

Vehicle Misfuel Ditcheat - Ditcheat Fuel Drain

I appreciated a fantastic day golfing on my day off and felt delighted the following day as I headed out to aid a new family who were away in Ditcheat. They had pulled over after inserting diesel into their MG, and were about an hour's drive away. I emerged at their car and laughed to myself while I heard to the woman telling her hubby off for being so confused. "Just how could you conceivably manage to fill the car up using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this kind of thing occurs continuously in Somerset and that it's in reality nothing at all to be anxious about, however he in spite of everything had an earful by his missus. Unlucky guy. In any case, I removed all the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. As they drove away I shouted bon voyage and considered what my missus would tell me if perhaps I did the same thing... I would never ever hear the end of it!
