Do you or your employees usually misfuel your car? We can solve any connected issues.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Essex we are identifying increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partially due to motorists not knowing the way to work with it (please note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to each other on the car.

So, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out asap. And most certainly never start up the motor - not even to maneuver it into a parking bay. Assuming you did start the vehicle you would most likely need to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious issue to take care of in an automobile - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel tank can certainly cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both cases fairly swiftly.

Take note though that if the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored close to parking spot we can reach the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}
