AdBlue Contamination

All over Somerset we are discovering a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a result of motorists not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (take note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to one another on the automobile.

Well, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Because AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In case you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it right away. And absolutely never start the car - not even to shift it away from the pump. Assuming you did start the vehicle you would almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually an important situation to address in a car - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank will often trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both situations rather simply.

Bear in mind however that so long as the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a car parking spot we can gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

We have been called out to several domestic and commercial premises in Somerset to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even a number of drums in a shed, as long as we can get to it, we can drain it for you.
