AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Surrey we have encountered progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent due to drivers not being aware of how to use it (take note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Since AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it immediately. And of course take care not to turn over the vehicle - not even to shift it off the pump. Assuming you did start the car you will in all likelihood have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely a serious issue to address in a car - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Water in fuel will likely bring about idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both situations pretty swiftly.

Keep in mind that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored near to parking bay we should be able to gain access to the storage and drain out the fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel container lying in the rear of your garden containing unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several private and business properties in Surrey to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in a garage, providing we can access it, we are able to drain it for you.

Run out of fuel in Thames Ditton (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full Surrey Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to re-fill your automobile any time you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home.

They can also take care of the usual issues which might come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Thames Ditton - Thames Ditton Vehicle Misfuel

I had enjoyed a wonderful afternoon fishing on my day off and felt cheerful with myself the following morning as I set out to aid a young couple on holiday in Thames Ditton. They'd broken down after putting the wrong fuel in their Porsche, and the car was close to half an hour's drive away. I showed up at their position and smirked to myself while I listened to the woman chastising her husband for turning out to be so silly. "Exactly how could you actually be able to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to explain that this kind of thing occurs constantly in Surrey and that it's truly nothing to worry about, and yet he yet still got an ear bashing. Poor boy. Anyhow, I extracted the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the right fuel. As they drove away I mouthed good-bye and thought about what her indoors would tell me in the event that I made the same blunder... I would under no circumstances hear the end of it!
