AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Cardiff we have seen a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part caused by people not understanding how to work with it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to each other on the automobile.

Well, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Since AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And obviously be careful not to crank the car - not even to move it away from the pump. In cases where you have started the car you will most likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important matter to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank can result in idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out properly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both circumstances pretty quickly.

Remember though that so long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will probably be totally wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored close to parking spot we can reach the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

We have been called out to numerous private and commercial properties in Cardiff for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a number of drums in a garage, assuming that we are able to get to it, we could certainly empty it for you.

We are able to get out to fill up your vehicle any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump price) to refill your car or truck. They will be able to fix the normal problems which may come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Creigiau - Creigiau Fuel Rescue

I had a fantastic afternoon golfing on my afternoon off and felt pleased with myself the following working day as I headed out to aid a new family who were on vacation in Creigiau. They had broken down after putting petrol in their Skoda, and they were close to an hour away. I turned up at their location and smirked as I heard to the woman telling her hubby off for turning out to be so silly. "Precisely how could you actually manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I tried to explain that this occurs all the time in Cardiff and that it's nothing at all to get worried about, even so he all the same had his ear bent. I felt genuine sympathy for the chap. Anyhow, I extracted all the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the proper fuel. While watching them drive away I mouthed goodbye and considered what her indoors would say to me if ever I made the exact same mistake... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
