AdBlue In Diesel

All around Cornwall we are discovering progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part a result of drivers not being totally sure the way to to make use of (note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to one another on the automobile.

So, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And definitely take care not to switch on the vehicle - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In the event that you did start the car you would most likely need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually an important situation to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel may well cause idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed fully, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out than water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both situations fairly easily.

You should know 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 fitted seeing that the previous one will be completely water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated close to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel container placed in the back of your premises with aged, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous privately owned and industrial properties in Cornwall to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or even several containers in a garage, provided that we can get to it, we can drain it.
