AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Herefordshire we are encountering more and more instances of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree caused by people not understanding the way to use it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to each other on the car.

Now, what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And most definitely don't crank the engine - not even to move it to a parking spot. In cases where you did start the car you would very likely need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol will often result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of properly, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both cases fairly swiftly.

Keep in mind however that any time the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one is going to be wholly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked close to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir sitting in the rear of your garden with unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial premises in Herefordshire to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few containers in a storage shed, provided that we can get to it, we can empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Ledbury (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a comprehensive Herefordshire Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to refill the car if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) and refill your car. They will handle the common problems which can accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to start, as well as flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Ledbury - Ledbury Vehicle Misfuel

A woman from Ledbury with her little ones in her diesel Smart had put £50 of petrol at the petrol station. She phoned us sobbing and really worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel before and didn't know what might happen to her car because of it. We reassured her that everything should be ok and that she would be ready to go in no time at all. When we arrived on scene she was visible distressed but as our fuel drainer started work on the fuel drain she simmered down since she discovered that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't ruined. She soon cheered up and was on her way saying, "I just can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Particularly with the children in the back."

Wrong Fuel Drain Ledbury - Ledbury Vehicle Misfuel

A customer phoned us from his house on a close in Ledbury. He said, "My car (a Mitsubishi) is not starting up and is producing dreadful sounds when I turn the ignition." He said that he had put petrol in his diesel vehicle but then thought he would resolve the problem by putting additional Diesel on top. We were on scene quickly, performed the fuel drain and filled it up once again with clean Diesel. He told us after that he'd be sure to explain to people not to fill up in addition to the wrong fuel but to have it cleaned out promptly.
