AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Staffordshire we have identified an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent due to drivers not being totally sure the way to to make use of (important: it is not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to each other on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it asap. And obviously never switch on the car - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In cases where you did start the vehicle you will very likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a serious situation to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water in fuel will often result in idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out than water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both situations quite expediently.

Bear in mind though that any time the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to an automobile parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir lying in the rear of your garden full of aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many private and business premises in Staffordshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a garage, if we can get to it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Rodbaston (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a complete Staffordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to fill up your car in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) to refill your car or truck. They can also handle any of the normal troubles that could accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Rodbaston - Rodbaston Wrong Fuel Assist

A customer rang us from his place on a street in Rodbaston. He exclaimed, "My car (a MG) is not starting up and is producing very bad sounds when I flip the ignition." He confessed that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle but then thought he would fix the problem by putting more Diesel on top. We were on scene quickly, did the fuel drain and filled him up once more with clean Diesel. He told us he'd be certain to tell people not to fill up over the incorrect fuel but to have it cleaned out immediately.
