AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Suffolk we are encountering a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of people not being totally sure the way to use it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Because AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it immediately. And absolutely take care not to turn over the car - not even to move it to a parking spot. In the event that you did start the vehicle you will very likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel can easily contribute to idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both circumstances fairly swiftly.

Remember though that if the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be totally wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a vehicle parking bay we can access the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

We have been called out to several privately owned and business properties in Suffolk to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a garage, providing we can reach it, we can certainly drain it.

Fuel Drain Colton - Colton Petrol in Diesel

I'd had a wonderful day hiking during my holiday and felt delighted with myself the following day as I set out to assist a young family away in Colton. They pulled over after inserting diesel into their Ford, and they were about half an hour's drive away. I arrived at their position and smirked as I listened to the lady chastising her spouse for being so foolish. "Precisely how could you actually manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I tried to explain that this problem happens constantly in Suffolk and that it is absolutely nothing to worry about, nevertheless he yet still got his ear bent. Unlucky boy. Anyway, I removed the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and filled them up with the proper fuel. As they drove away I mouthed farewell and pondered on what my missus would ask me if I did the exact same thing... I'd never live it down!
