AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout South Yorkshire we have discovered progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a degree thanks to motorists not knowing the way to to make use of (note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to one another on the car.

Now, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And certainly never start up the motor - not even to move it into a parking spot. In cases where you did start the vehicle you will almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be an important situation to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel will produce idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both cases pretty simply.

Bear in mind that whenever the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a vehicle parking bay we are able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container laying at the rear of your premises containing out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and industrial properties in South Yorkshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or even several containers in an outbuilding, if we are able to get to it, we can drain it for you.

We can come to re-fill the car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home.
