AdBlue In Diesel

In Worcestershire we are finding a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly thanks to drivers not understanding the way to use it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to one another on the car.

So, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

In case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And absolutely do not turn over the motor - not even to shift it to a parking place. If you did start the vehicle you would likely need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question an important issue to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank will likely lead to idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both situations quite expediently.

You should know however that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured close to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir placed in the back of your garden full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and business premises in Worcestershire to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in an outbuilding, provided that we can access it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Upper Wick (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a comprehensive Worcestershire Out of Fuel Service. We can help to fill up your automobile any time you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home.

They will take care of the standard issues that may accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even dead batteries due to over-cranking.

It was actually early in the day and our fuel drainer, who resides locally, arrived with him in approximately twenty minutes. We were able to take out the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel back in the vehicle. "Genuine thanks to you for your timely response, and in particular at 2 a.m., I am grateful for it."
