AdBlue Contamination

All around Suffolk we have encountered an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly as a consequence of motorists not being aware of the right way to use it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to one another on the car.

So, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

In the event that you put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And obviously take care not to start up the vehicle - not even to shift it to a parking area. Assuming you have started the vehicle you will probably need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important situation to deal with in an automobile - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel tank will likely result in idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain when compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both cases pretty simply.

You should know though that if the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will probably be totally water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to an automobile parking bay we can reach the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container placed in the rear of your premises full of unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous domestic and industrial premises in Suffolk to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or even some containers in a garage, provided that we are able to get to it, we are able to empty it.

Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Higham (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a complete Suffolk Out of Fuel Service. We can help to refill your car any time you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) and fill your car. They can also deal with any of the typical problems that can go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Higham - Higham Fuel Drain

I had enjoyed a great afternoon fishing during my day off and felt cheerful the following day as I set off to assist a young family holidaying in Higham. They'd conked out after filling diesel in their Suzuki, and the car was roughly half an hour's drive away. I showed up at their car and smiled as I listened to the gal telling off her hubby for being so confused. "How could you conceivably find a way to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to explain that this situation goes on quite frequently in Suffolk and that it's nothing at all to be concerned about, nonetheless he yet still got an earful by his wife. Unlucky chap. At any rate, I drained the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and gave it some appropriate fuel. While watching them drive away I mouthed so long and thought about what my wife would ask me in the event that I did the exact same thing... I would never ever hear the end of it!

Recent Fuel Drains in Higham

Testimonies from our Higham employees:

I am not too enthusiastic about carrying out work on weekends, and last week was no different. I had only just come away from home following a lovely roast prepared for me by the better half, and I was on the way to deal with a gentleman after he had filled the incorrect petrol in his SEAT. He was located in Higham so it wasn't a long time before I reached him. As I pulled up behind the car and got out he said to me "Thank God! I incredibly had my attention on other considerations and did not grasp that I had put diesel in my petrol car. I need to know if I inflicted damage simply by driving it?" I revealed that generally there shouldn't be harm and also that I would drain the contaminated fuel as soon as possible. Needless to say I removed the contaminated fuel from the car and put in some appropriate fuel, and then yet another pleased motorist had the ability to continue their journey without any subsequent difficulty. He could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and this tends to make operating on Sundays in Suffolk that little bit better in my opinion!

This was the graveyard shift. It was roughly 2:30am and almost noone was about. It had become quite quiet so far, and John and I were loafing about perusing several old magazines. It was an unusual calm time in Suffolk. Actually it was that peaceful that the instant the telephone eventually rang I leaped! The voice said: "I only just completed my evening shift and incredibly poured the wrong fuel in my Ford". I got him to let us know where the car was situated and we headed out, arriving in Higham no more than 30 minutes later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned from the car. He said thanks a lot for showing up so quickly. As we were going back to the office we noticed two young women on the edge of the street who seemed like they had a flat tyre. Accordingly we pulled over to change it, to their delight.
