AdBlue In Diesel

All over Oxfordshire we are noticing a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a result of motorists not understanding the right way to to make use of (remember: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Well, what's the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel car? As the product is primarily deionised water, it's just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it immediately. And definitely take care not to start the vehicle - not even to maneuver it into a parking area. In the event that you did start the car you may most likely need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious matter to address in a vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel tank will often lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both circumstances very quickly.

Bear in mind though that whenever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will likely be completely water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a vehicle parking spot we can access the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir sitting in the back of your garden full of out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several domestic and commercial properties in Oxfordshire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or even a number of drums in an outbuilding, as long as we can get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Hanwell (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a complete Oxfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill your automobile in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) to fill up your car. They can also take care of the usual problems that might go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even dead batteries due to over-cranking.
