AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Suffolk we have seen a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to some extent stemming from people not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (remember: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to each other on the automobile.

So, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And most definitely take care not to crank the vehicle - not even to shift it to a parking bay. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you will likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually a significant matter to address in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel is likely to contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both circumstances pretty expediently.

Be aware however that in the event that the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to gain access to the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

We have been called out to several private and business premises in Suffolk for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

Wrong Fuel Honington - Honington Wrong Fuel

A woman from Honington with her little ones in her diesel Mazda had put £30 of petrol at the Tesco service station. She phoned us crying and very distraught as she had never wrong fuelled before and didn't know what might happen to her vehicle because of it. We assured her that all should be fine and that she would be back ready to go in no time at all. When we arrived on scene she was visible upset but while our engineer started work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she recognised that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't unfixable. She soon cheered up and was on the road again saying, "I just can't believe my luck putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Especially with the kids on board."
