Our Fields of Expertise: Services We Offer:

Do you or your drivers often misfuel your car? We can resolve any connected issues.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Cornwall we have found an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially due to motorists not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to each other on the car.

Now, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since the product is mostly deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it right away. And certainly take care not to start the car - not even to maneuver it to a parking bay. In case you have started the vehicle you would almost certainly need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually an important matter to handle in a vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel can certainly result in idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both circumstances very quickly.

Take note however that in the event that the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one is going to be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the storage and drain out the fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

We've been called out to numerous private and industrial premises in Cornwall to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages.
