AdBlue Contamination

In Worcestershire we have seen a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partly due to people being unsure of how to to make use of (remember: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to each other on the car.

So, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is mostly ionised water, it is almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out right away. And certainly do not crank the vehicle - not even to relocate it from the pump. If you did start the vehicle you will most likely need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually an important situation to take care of in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank is going to cause idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out properly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both cases fairly easily.

Be aware though that as long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel container placed at the back of the garden full of unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and business properties in Worcestershire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or even a few drums in a storage shed, provided that we are able to get to it, we can empty it for you.

Out of fuel in Grimes Hill (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a complete Worcestershire Out of Fuel Service. We will help to re-fill your vehicle if you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home.

They will be able to take care of the standard troubles which could accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
