AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Hampshire we are encountering a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of motorists being unsure of how to use it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Since the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And certainly never switch on the motor - not even to move it from the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you may very likely have to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a significant matter to address in a car - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol is likely to lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of properly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out than water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both circumstances very easily.

Remember though that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

We've been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial premises in Hampshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even several containers in a garage, if we can access it, we can drain it.

We can easily get out to fill up your vehicle any time you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home.
