AdBlue In Diesel

In Wiltshire we have encountered progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to motorists not being aware of the way to to make use of (take note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to each other on the automobile.

Well, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel car? As AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it asap. And obviously take care not to start the motor - not even to shift it to a parking area. In the instance that you have started the car you will likely need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your petrol or diesel is going to trigger idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can handle both situations quite swiftly.

Take note however that so long as the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will probably be completely wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a car parking bay we will be able to gain access to the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir lying in the rear of your garden containing aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many private and business properties in Wiltshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous drums in a garage, if we can reach it, we can certainly drain it.

Fuel Removal Hackthorn - Hackthorn Wrong Fuel Doctor

A guy had broken down off a street in Hackthorn. His Skoda motor had stopped functioning and he had no clue what was awry until he realised he had put petrol in his diesel car. He contacted us to get a fuel drain and that is when he said to us: "I cannot believe that I did not realise that I had put the wrong fuel in my car."
