AdBlue In Diesel
In Staffordshire we are finding increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a degree due to motorists not being aware of the way to to make use of (please note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to one another on the car.
Now, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? As AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.
If in case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it at once. And most certainly don't crank the engine - not even to relocate it from the pump. If you did start the car you may almost certainly have to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed out.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be an important condition to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank can easily produce idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both cases quite easily.
Keep in mind however that any time the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and useless.
Boat Fuel Drains
If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to an automobile parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Have an old fuel container placed in the back of the garden with aged, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and commercial properties in Staffordshire to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.
