Do you or your drivers frequently misfuel your vehicle? We can fix any related issues.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Essex we have noticed a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mainly a result of drivers not understanding how to to make use of (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to each other on the car.

Well, what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it's just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it at once. And obviously never start the motor - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you may in all likelihood have to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important situation to deal with in a car - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in petrol or diesel can trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both situations fairly swiftly.

Bear in mind though that whenever the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured close to a vehicle parking bay we are able to gain access to the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

We have been called out to many private and commercial properties in Essex to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages.

Wrong Fuel Knowl Green - Knowl Green Fuel Removal

I had appreciated a great afternoon hiking during my day off and felt delighted with myself the next morning as I set out to assist a new couple who were on holiday in Knowl Green. They had pulled over after putting petrol into their Volvo, and the car was close to an hour away. I arrived at their position and smirked to myself while I listened to the woman telling off her husband for actually being so daft. "Exactly how could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I attempted to explain that this kind of thing comes to pass constantly in Essex and that it is absolutely nothing to stress about, however he in spite of everything had an earful by his wife. I felt sorry for the chap. Anyway, I drained the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled it up with the correct fuel. As they drove away I waved good-bye and pondered on what her indoors would ask me if ever I made the same mistake... I would personally never live it down!
