Do you or your drivers frequently misfuel your vehicle? We can fix any related problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Hertfordshire we are identifying a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mostly due to motorists not knowing how to use it (be aware: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is predominantly ionised water, it is almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it at once. And absolutely be careful not to crank the car - not even to shift it into a parking area. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you may in all probability have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant matter to deal with in an automobile - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Having water in fuel may well cause idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not remedied fully, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both circumstances rather swiftly.

Take note that whenever the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will likely be totally water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to access the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}
