AdBlue In Diesel

All around Merseyside we are encountering more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mainly thanks to drivers not being totally sure how to work with it (note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to each other on the car.

So, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it immediately. And obviously take care not to start the vehicle - not even to relocate it away from the pump. Assuming you have started the car you would probably have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a serious condition to address in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel is going to bring about idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove when compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both circumstances fairly quickly.

Take note though that whenever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated close to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank lying at the rear of the garden with out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and industrial premises in Merseyside for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in an outbuilding, providing we can reach it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Bootle (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a full Merseyside Out of Fuel Service. We will help to fill up your car in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) to refill the car. They can also deal with the usual troubles that could come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Bootle - Bootle Wrong Fuel Doctor

A customer contacted us from his home on a street in Bootle. He explained, "My vehicle (a Volvo) is not starting and is producing awful noises when I turn the ignition." He admitted that he put petrol in his diesel vehicle but then imagined he would fix the issue by putting further Diesel on top. We showed up promptly, carried out the fuel drain and filled it up once more with fresh Diesel. He told us that he would be absolutely sure to inform people not to fill up over the incorrect fuel but to have it cleaned out promptly.
