AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Hertfordshire we have seen a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partly as a result of drivers not being totally sure the right way to work with it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to each other on the car.

So, what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And most certainly don't switch on the vehicle - not even to maneuver it to a parking area. In the event that you did start the car you would probably have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question a significant condition to deal with in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank will likely trigger idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both cases quite easily.

Take note though that if ever the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will be totally wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated near to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir sitting at the back of your premises with out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and business properties in Hertfordshire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous drums in an outbuilding, as long as we can get to it, we could certainly empty it.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Bishop s Stortford (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a complete Hertfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can help to fill up the car if you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at cost) and fill up your vehicle. They can also take care of any of the most common issues that may accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Recent Fuel Drains in Bishop s Stortford

Reports from our own Bishop s Stortford employees:

Now I am not necessarily so excited about carrying out work weekends, and last week was no different. I had just come away from the wife and kids following a lovely dinner cooked for me by the better half, and I was on my way to deal with a fellow after he had filled the incorrect petrol in his SEAT. He was stationed in Bishop s Stortford so it wasn't a long time before I reached him. Just as I drove up behind the vehicle and stepped out he told me "Thank God! I had my attention on something else and didn't perceive I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. I need to know if I caused some damage simply by running it?" I stated that generally there shouldn't be damage and also I would personally remove the wrong fuel right away. It goes without saying that I got the contaminated fuel drained from the vehicle and put in some appropriate fuel, and thus yet another contented customer could carry on with their journey without any subsequent fuss. He did not stop thanking me, and that helps make operating on Sundays in Hertfordshire just that small bit better for me personally!

Fuel Rescue Bishop s Stortford - Bishop s Stortford Wrong Fuel Assist

A lady from Bishop s Stortford with a full car of youngsters in her diesel Volkswagen had filled her vehicle with £45 of petrol at the Texaco filling station. She contacted us weeping and extremely distraught as she had never put petrol in a diesel and didn't know what might happen to her car . We assured her that all would be fine and that she would be on the road in no time at all. When we arrived she was still distressed but while our fuel drainer began work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she saw that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't ruined. She soon cheered up and was up and running saying, "I just can't believe my misfortune putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Particularly with the kids on board."

Wrong Fuel Doctor Bishop s Stortford - Bishop s Stortford Fuel Rescue

I had enjoyed a wonderful day hiking during the weekend and felt contented with myself the following working day as I was on the way to help a new family away in Bishop s Stortford. They conked out after adding diesel in their Kia, and they were roughly an hour's travel away. I got there at their location and laughed to myself as I heard to the gal chastising her husband for being so stupid. "Precisely how could you actually be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I tried to tell her that this goes on continuously in Hertfordshire and that it is nothing at all to fret about, and yet he yet still got an ear bashing. Poor guy. Anyhow, I removed the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave them some right fuel. Watching as they drove off I shouted farewell and thought about what my wife would tell me if I did the very same thing... I'd never hear the end of it!
