AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Somerset we have discovered an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a degree thanks to people not understanding how to use it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to each other on the vehicle.

So, what's the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Because AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Call us if it turns out you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can fix all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually an important matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the diesel or petrol may result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both circumstances rather quickly.

Be aware though that as long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will probably be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to parking spot we can reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

We have been called out to many privately owned and business premises in Somerset to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even numerous drums in an outbuilding, if we can reach it, we are able to drain it.

Vehicle Misfuel West Pennard - West Pennard Fuel Removal

A guy had broken down just off a street in West Pennard. His MINI motor had stopped running and he'd no idea what was faulty until eventually he noticed he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle. He contacted us to request a fuel drain and it was then when he informed us: "I can not believe that I did not detect that I put the incorrect fuel in my car." He said that he had got absolutely no rest the evening before and that must have been precisely why.
