Do you or your employees frequently misfuel your vehicle? We can resolve any connected problems.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Buckinghamshire we have noticed a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent stemming from people not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to one another on the car.

So, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing that the product is mostly ionised water, it is just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it asap. And obviously take care not to switch on the car - not even to move it off of the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you will in all probability need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant situation to deal with in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank will likely bring about idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both situations rather expediently.

Remember however that so long as the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a vehicle parking spot we can reach the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Have a fuel container lying in the rear of your garden full of unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many private and industrial premises in Buckinghamshire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps numerous drums in a garage, providing we can access it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Prestwood - Prestwood Fuel Removal

I had a wonderful afternoon golfing on my day off and was feeling contented the following working day as I set off to aid a new couple who were vacationing in Prestwood. They had pulled over after filling the wrong fuel in their Nissan, and were around half an hour away. I arrived at their car and laughed to myself while I listened to the woman berating her husband for turning out to be so confused. "Just how could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I wanted to tell her that this occurs constantly in Buckinghamshire and that it's nothing at all to get worried about, but he yet still got an earful by his wife. Unlucky chap. In any case, I drained the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. As they drove away I shouted so long and thought about what her indoors would tell me if perhaps I did the exact same thing... I'd under no circumstances hear the end of it!
