AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Suffolk we have found a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is in part due to people not understanding how to work with it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to each other on the vehicle.

So, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Since AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it right away. And most definitely be careful not to start the motor - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. If perhaps you have started the car you would probably have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely a serious situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel can certainly result in idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both situations pretty quickly.

Remember however that if the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a vehicle parking bay we can gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container at the back of the garden containing old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous privately owned and industrial properties in Suffolk to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a shed, assuming that we are able to access it, we can empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Helmingham (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a full Suffolk Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to re-fill your vehicle in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill up your automobile. They will fix any of the common problems which could go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Helmingham - Helmingham Wrong Fuel Drain

A couple of days ago a youngster called us because his Toyota stopped working along a street in Helmingham. He had mistakenly put the wrong fuel in his diesel motor and was only able to drive as far as the street before having to stop. It was still in the early hours of the morning and our technician, who resides nearby, got to him in approximately fifteen minutes. We managed to remove the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel once again in the vehicle. "Thank you for your prompt response, especially at 5 a.m., I genuinely appreciate it."
