AdBlue Contamination

All around Oxfordshire we have noticed a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mainly due to drivers being unsure of the right way to use it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Call us if you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to fix all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant condition to address in a car - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank will often trigger idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not remedied correctly, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both cases fairly easily.

Bear in mind however that if the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to an automobile parking bay we are able to access the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container laying in the rear of the garden full of unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several private and business premises in Oxfordshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several containers in a shed, providing we can get to it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Duxford (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a full Oxfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We will help to refill your car in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump prices) and refill your car. They will deal with the usual problems which may go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Duxford - Duxford Wrong Fuel Doctor

I had enjoyed a terrific evening golfing during my off day and was feeling pleased the next morning as I headed out to aid a young family who were on holiday in Duxford. They conked out after inserting petrol into their Smart, and they were around half an hour's drive away. I emerged at their car and smiled to myself while I heard to the lady telling her spouse off for turning out to be so daft. "Exactly how could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I attempted to explain that this situation happens constantly in Oxfordshire and that it's in reality nothing to get worried about, and yet he in spite of everything had an earful. Unfortunate lad. Anyhow, I extracted all of the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and gave them some appropriate fuel. Watching as they drove down the road I shouted bon voyage and pondered on what my missus would do to me if perhaps I made the exact same blunder... I'd personally never ever hear the end of it!
