AdBlue Contamination

All around West Yorkshire we have found a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partially a result of motorists being unsure of how to work with it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And of course don't start up the vehicle - not even to move it from the pump. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you may very likely have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is definitely an important matter to handle in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel can easily produce idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with fully, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both cases fairly quickly.

Take note though that so long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one is going to be wholly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a vehicle parking bay we can reach the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Got a fuel tank sitting at the back of your garden with unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial properties in West Yorkshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Wrong Fuel Drain Portsmouth - Portsmouth Vehicle Misfuel

I had appreciated a wonderful afternoon cycling on my off day and felt contented the following day as I headed out to assist a new couple who were on vacation in Portsmouth. They broken down after adding the wrong fuel into their Ford, and the car was close to an hour away. I showed up at their location and laughed while I heard to the wife telling her spouse off for being so confused. "Precisely how could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I attempted to clarify that this problem happens constantly in West Yorkshire and that it's really nothing to be anxious about, nevertheless he yet still had an earful. Unlucky lad. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed all the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the right fuel. Watching while they drove away I mouthed good bye and pondered on what my wife would tell me if perhaps I did the exact same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances live it down!
