AdBlue Contamination

In Bedfordshire we are discovering a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is in part a result of drivers not understanding how to use it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to each other on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And most certainly never start up the engine - not even to relocate it off the pump. Assuming you have started the car you may very likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually an important issue to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel tank will often trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both circumstances fairly expediently.

Bear in mind however that so long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will be completely water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a car parking bay we can access the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel container at the rear of your garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and business properties in Bedfordshire to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we can access it, we could certainly empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Harrold (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a comprehensive Bedfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to fill up your vehicle in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at cost) and fill your car. They can also fix any of the standard problems that might come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Harrold - Harrold Wrong Fuel

A couple weeks ago a young man called us because his Mitsubishi stopped along a street in Harrold. He had inadvertently put unleaded in the diesel vehicle and drove as far as the street before having to pull over. It was yet early in the day and our technician, who stays not far away, reached him in about a quarter hour. We were able to remove the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel back into the vehicle. "Many thanks to you for your timely response, particularly at 2 a.m., I genuinely am grateful for it."
