AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Angus we are identifying an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to some extent due to people not understanding the way to use it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to each other on the car.

Now, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? As the product is predominantly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In case you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And most definitely don't turn over the engine - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you would most likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank will lead to idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both cases rather expediently.

Take note though that so long as the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to parking bay we are able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container at the back of your garden full of aged, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous privately owned and business properties in Angus to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a garage, provided that we can get to it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Brechin (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a complete Angus Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to fill up your automobile any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) to fill up your vehicle. They are also able to handle the most common problems which may go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Fuel Removal Brechin - Brechin Wrong Fuel Doctor

I had a great evening golfing during my off day and felt pleased with myself the next day as I headed out to aid a new couple who were away in Brechin. They broken down after putting the wrong fuel in their MG, and they were approximately half an hour away. I emerged at their location and smirked as I heard to the lady chastising her hubby for turning out to be so stupid. "Just how could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I wanted to tell her that this kind of thing happens on daily basis in Angus and that it's absolutely nothing to be anxious about, but he still had an earful by his better half. Unlucky guy. In any case, I extracted all of the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled it up with the proper fuel. While watching them drive away I waved hasta la vista and considered what my missus would ask me in the event that I did the same thing... I would never ever live it down!
