AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over North Lanarkshire we have found more and more instances of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree a result of people not being totally sure how to to make use of (important: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to one another on the vehicle.

So, what's the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as the product is primarily ionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And certainly do not switch on the engine - not even to shift it off of the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you will most likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious situation to deal with in an automobile - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in the petrol or diesel is likely to contribute to idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both cases pretty simply.

Bear in mind however that if the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will likely be wholly wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked near to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

We have been called out to numerous domestic and industrial premises in North Lanarkshire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.

Fuel Removal Gartcosh - Gartcosh Wrong Fuel Assist

I had appreciated a fantastic afternoon golfing during the weekend and was feeling pleased the following morning as I headed out to help a new family vacationing in Gartcosh. They'd stopped after adding the wrong fuel into their Land Rover, and they were approximately an hour's drive away. I arrived at their location and smirked as I listened to the woman chastising her husband for actually being so stupid. "How could you possibly find a way to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I wanted to explain that this comes to pass quite frequently in North Lanarkshire and that it's absolutely nothing to get worried about, however he still had his ear bent. I felt sorry for the lad. In any case, I extracted all the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave them some appropriate fuel. While they drove away I mouthed hasta la vista and wondered what her indoors would do to me in the event that I made the very same mistake... I would never ever hear the end of it!

Irrespective of whether it is diesel in petrol or petrol in diesel we can help resolve it. We are awaiting your phone call to offer you tips and our expertise to get you moving once again. Call us now:
