These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue Contamination

All over Worcestershire we have noticed a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to some extent thanks to drivers not being totally sure the way to work with it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to one another on the automobile.

So, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it right away. And certainly never turn over the car - not even to move it into a parking place. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you may probably need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a significant situation to take care of in a car - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Having water in diesel or petrol can potentially contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain than water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both cases rather swiftly.

You should know however that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated close to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}
