AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Kent we are finding more and more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree as a consequence of motorists being unsure of how to use it (take note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to one another on the automobile.

So, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it asap. And most definitely never crank the motor - not even to shift it to a parking place. In cases where you have started the vehicle you may probably need to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a significant matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel can certainly trigger idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both circumstances fairly simply.

Remember that whenever the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one is going to be completely wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a vehicle parking spot we can reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container at the rear of the garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and commercial properties in Kent to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to reach it, we can drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Friningham (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a full Kent Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to fill up your vehicle any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump price) and refill the car. They will be able to take care of the standard problems which may come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries because of over-cranking.


Fuel Rescue Friningham - Friningham Wrong Fuel Drain

A man phoned us from Friningham saying he stupidly piped unleaded into his diesel Chevrolet. "I can't believe it! I can't believe I put petrol in my diesel car!" It only took our technician around fifty minutes to completely drain the incorrect fuel out of the vehicle. He thoroughly purged the fuel lines, filter and pumps and put clean diesel in the car. The customer was completely satisfied and it didn't cost him car dealership rates to get the job properly performed.

We go to over 5,000 fuel drains yearly in the UK (yes, there are that many customers who do the same thing - you are definitely not the only person).

Recent Fuel Drains in Friningham

Several examples:

We not long ago had a phone call from a young man who had put the wrong fuel in his Porsche in Friningham. He had come to a stand-still on the road. "I was pleasantly surprised at how quick you guys were in getting an engineer out to assist me after I mistakenly unleaded in my diesel car. I'm very grateful". Obviously we arrived on the scene rapidly and flushed the engine after draining all of the contaminated fuel from the diesel tank. When he arrived our fuel drainer said the motorist was scowling, but was satisfied when we finished.

Wrong Fuel Drain Friningham - Friningham Petrol in Diesel

A lady from Friningham with her little ones in her diesel Porsche had filled her vehicle with £20 of petrol at the station. She contacted us weeping and extremely distraught as she had never put petrol in a diesel car previously and didn't know what would happen to her car in doing so. We reassured her that the vehicle would be alright and that she would be back in action soon. When we arrived she was still upset but while our technician started work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she discovered that something could be done and her car wasn't ruined. She quickly brightened up and was up and running saying, "I can't believe my bad luck putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Especially with the little ones in the back."

Fuel Drain Friningham - Friningham Wrong Fuel

I had appreciated a fantastic day hiking on my holiday and felt pleased with myself the following working day as I set out to assist a young family who were vacationing in Friningham. They broken down after putting petrol in their Porsche, and they were around half an hour away. I showed up at their position and smiled to myself as I heard to the woman telling off her husband for turning out to be so stupid. "How could you conceivably find a way to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I attempted to tell her that this problem goes on on a regular basis in Kent and that it's absolutely nothing to worry about, and yet he yet still had his ear bent by his better half. Unfortunate chap. Anyhow, I removed the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some right fuel. While they drove down the road I waved good-bye and considered what her indoors would say to me in the event that I made the same error... I would never ever live it down!
