AdBlue Contamination

All around Newham we have encountered increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly stemming from drivers not understanding the way to work with it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to each other on the vehicle.

So, what's the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it at once. And most definitely do not start the car - not even to relocate it off of the pump. If perhaps you have started the car you will very likely need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a serious issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel is likely to bring about idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not addressed correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both situations fairly easily.

Keep in mind that so long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will probably be totally wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Have an old fuel container sitting in the rear of your garden containing unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and business properties in Newham to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a garage, as long as we can reach it, we can drain it for you.

Run out of fuel in Stonewood (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a comprehensive Newham Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to fill up the car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump price) and fill your car or truck. They are also able to take care of the typical issues that could come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Stonewood - Stonewood Fuel Rescue

I'd had a wonderful afternoon golfing during my holiday and was feeling satisfied with myself the next morning as I set out to aid a new family on vacation in Stonewood. They had stopped after inserting diesel into their Mitsubishi, and the car was around an hour away. I showed up at their position and smirked to myself while I listened to the gal telling her man off for turning out to be so daft. "Just how could you conceivably be able to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I tried to tell her that this goes on regularly in Newham and that it's in reality nothing to be anxious about, nonetheless he yet still got an earful. I felt sorry for the boy. Anyway, I extracted all the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave them some right fuel. While they drove away I shouted bon voyage and pondered on what her indoors would ask me if I did the same thing... I would personally under no circumstances live it down!
