AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Wiltshire we are finding an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is in part as a consequence of drivers not being totally sure how to work with it (note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

So, what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Because AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it asap. And obviously don't start the engine - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. If you have started the vehicle you will likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious matter to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the petrol or diesel can easily contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both cases quite easily.

Remember however that as long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will likely be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to reach the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank at the back of the garden full of unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and business premises in Wiltshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a shed, provided that we can access it, we can drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Fittleton (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a comprehensive Wiltshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to re-fill the car in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) to refill your vehicle. They are also able to take care of any of the common problems which could go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Fittleton - Fittleton Wrong Fuel Doctor

A person called us from his residence on a street in Fittleton. He said, "My car (a Dacia) is not starting up and is producing very bad noises when I flip the key." He confessed that he had put unleaded in his diesel vehicle but then imagined he would remedy the issue by putting additional Diesel on top. We showed up quickly, carried out the fuel drain and filled it up once again with fresh Diesel. He said after that he'd be sure to inform people not to fill up on top of the incorrect fuel but to get it drained right away.
