We can assist you with these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Kent we have discovered increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a consequence of motorists not being totally sure the way to work with it (take note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to each other on the car.

Well, what's the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Because AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it asap. And absolutely do not switch on the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking spot. In the event that you did start the car you would very likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a serious issue to address in a car - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in the diesel or petrol can certainly produce idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both circumstances pretty swiftly.

Be aware that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be completely wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated close to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

We've been called out to a number of domestic and business premises in Kent to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.
