AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Worcestershire we are encountering progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is in part as a result of drivers not knowing the right way to use it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to one another on the automobile.

So, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained asap. And absolutely never switch on the vehicle - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you will in all probability have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious situation to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in your petrol or diesel can bring about idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we can solve both circumstances very expediently.

Keep in mind that in the event that the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will undoubtedly be totally wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to an automobile parking spot we can reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

We have been called out to a number of domestic and industrial properties in Worcestershire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a garage, provided that we are able to reach it, we could certainly empty it.
