Questions about contaminated fuel collection in New Quay
Can you take fuel with AdBlue in it?
Yes. Tell us it is there and roughly how much; AdBlue is mostly water, so it reduces the recoverable fuel in a load from New Quay.
Do I need to test the fuel first?
No. A description, photos and a look at a sample in a clear jar are enough for us to start.
What is diesel bug?
A growth of bacteria and fungi where water meets diesel. Tanks around New Quay that have stood with water in them are where it usually turns up.
