AdBlue Contamination

In Suffolk we have found a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a result of people not being totally sure the way to use it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to each other on the automobile.

Well, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it right away. And most definitely do not start the car - not even to move it off the pump. If you did start the car you would in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually a serious situation to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank will likely cause idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of than water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both cases very expediently.

Keep in mind however that so long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured close to a car parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel tank lying at the back of your garden full of out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many private and business properties in Suffolk for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even numerous containers in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it.

Out of fuel in Redgrave (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a full Suffolk Out of Fuel Service. We will come to refill your vehicle if you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home.
