AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Harrow we are encountering a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree as a consequence of drivers being unsure of the right way to work with it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Now, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And of course never start up the vehicle - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In case you did start the vehicle you would most likely have to have the full fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a serious issue to take care of in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your petrol or diesel may well cause idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both circumstances very expediently.

Bear in mind however that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will likely be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a vehicle parking spot we can reach the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir placed in the back of your garden with unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and industrial premises in Harrow to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced 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 container, a mobile bowser, or even numerous drums in an outbuilding, providing we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Stanmore (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a comprehensive Harrow Out of Fuel Service. We can come to fill up your vehicle in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) to fill your car. They will be able to handle the standard issues that might accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe dead batteries due to over-cranking.

A man called us from Stanmore to state that he had unfortunately piped petrol in to his diesel Ford. "Shocking! I can't believe I put petrol in my diesel car!" It took the engineer around fifty minutes to fully drain the incorrect fuel from the car. He completely cleaned the fuel system and then put fresh fuel in the vehicle. The customer was happy and it didn't cost him dealer prices to have the work professionally performed.
