We can help you with these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Bromley we have seen an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mostly caused by motorists not being totally sure the way to to make use of (note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is predominantly deionised water, it is like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And certainly don't start up the vehicle - not even to maneuver it into a parking spot. Assuming you did start the car you would almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be a significant issue to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in fuel tank will often cause idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both circumstances fairly expediently.

Remember however that if the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will be wholly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

We've been called out to many private and business properties in Bromley to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages.
