AdBlue Contamination

In Barnet we are encountering increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent a result of drivers not understanding how to to make use of (be aware: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to one another on the automobile.

So, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Because the product is primarily deionised water, it is actually just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

If in case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it asap. And certainly do not crank the engine - not even to move it off of the pump. If perhaps you did start the car you may in all likelihood have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually a significant situation to take care of in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel will likely cause idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain in comparison with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both circumstances quite easily.

Bear in mind though that whenever the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one is going to be thoroughly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to parking bay we will be able to reach the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container placed in the back of your garden containing aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of private and industrial premises in Barnet for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous drums in an outbuilding, providing we can reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Arkley (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a full Barnet Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to refill your vehicle in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) and fill up the car. They will handle the typical issues that might go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Arkley - Arkley Wrong Fuel Drain

I'd had a great evening golfing on the weekend and was feeling satisfied the next morning as I set off to help a new couple who were on holiday in Arkley. They had stopped after inserting petrol into their Fiat, and the car was about half an hour away. I got there at their position and smiled while I listened to the wife telling her man off for actually being so silly. "Exactly how could you conceivably find a way to fill the car up using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I wanted to tell her that this situation occurs on a regular basis in Barnet and that it's nothing to be anxious about, but he yet still had an earful. Unlucky lad. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave them some proper fuel. Watching them drive down the road I shouted farewell and thought about what her indoors would do to me if I did the very same thing... I'd personally never ever hear the end of it!

Recent Fuel Drains in Arkley

Here are examples and good examples of contaminated fuel removal performed in Arkley:

Now I'm certainly not overly interested in running on Sundays, and last week was the same. I had only just left the wife and kids following a wonderful dinner prepared for us by the better half, and I was en route to help a man who had filled the wrong petrol in his Porsche. He was only in Arkley so it wouldn't be long before I reached him. Just as I drove up at the rear of the vehicle and got out he told me "Praise the Almighty! I foolishly had my mind on something else and did not perceive I had put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I caused damage because of running it?" I explained generally there should not be any harm and that I'd get the wrong fuel drained quickly for him. As expected I got the contaminated fuel drained from the car and put in some correct fuel, and one more contented client had the ability to carry on with his trip without the need for bother. He could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and that makes earning a living on weekends in Barnet just a small bit easier for me!

Vehicle Misfuel Arkley - Arkley Wrong Fuel

A customer who had unluckily put the wrong fuel in his diesel Kia phoned us for assistance at the BP petrol station in Arkley. He thought it would be good to fill up before proceeding on to the nearby recreation park . "I put unleaded instead of diesel and it wasn't a great start to our getaway." It was definitely no problem whatsoever for our technical engineer to go out and do the fuel drain. We hope they enjoyed their holiday.

Petrol in Diesel Arkley - Arkley Wrong Fuel Assist

A week ago a motorist telephoned us because his Renault ground to a halt along a road in Arkley. He had inadvertently put the incorrect fuel in the diesel motor and had managed to drive to the road before needing to pull over. It was actually in the early hours of the day and our engineer, who lives locally, reached him in about 20 minutes. We were able to drain the wrong fuel and put fresh diesel yet again into the vehicle. "Genuine kudos to you for your timely response, and in particular at 4 a.m., I appreciate it."
