AdBlue In your Fuel

In Hertfordshire we are encountering progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly thanks to drivers not knowing how to work with it (important: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to each other on the automobile.

So, what's the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you put AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And definitely take care not to switch on the motor - not even to move it from the pump. In case you have started the vehicle you may probably need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be an important condition to handle in a car - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank is going to lead to idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both situations fairly simply.

Keep in mind though that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to an automobile parking spot we can access the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank sitting at the rear of the garden containing old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several domestic and industrial premises in Hertfordshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even several drums in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to get to it, we can certainly drain it.

Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Whitehall (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a full Hertfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to re-fill your automobile in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at cost) and fill your car. They will fix any of the standard problems that may go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Whitehall - Whitehall Wrong Fuel Drain

A customer had conked out just off a street in Whitehall. His Mercedes motor had stopped functioning and he had no idea what was the problem till he noticed he put petrol in his diesel vehicle. He rang us to get a fuel drain and that is when he explained to us: "I cannot believe that I didn't know that I put the incorrect fuel in my car." He claimed that he had gotten very little sleep the day before and that must have been why.
