AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Essex we have seen progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a result of drivers not knowing the right way to work with it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that the product is predominantly deionised water, it is just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you end up in this predicament don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination company. Our engineers possess the specialised know-how and experience to get you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant situation to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in the petrol or diesel is going to cause idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both circumstances very easily.

Remember though that if the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to parking bay we will be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir sitting at the rear of your garden with old, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many domestic and commercial premises in Essex to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even several containers in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to reach it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Shenfield (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a comprehensive Essex Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to re-fill your car if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) and fill your car. They can also deal with any of the normal problems which might go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Shenfield - Shenfield Wrong Fuel in Car

A man called us from his house on a street in Shenfield. He pronounced, "My vehicle (a Smart) is not starting and is making dreadful sounds when I turn the key." He said that he put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle but then thought he would fix the issue by putting extra Diesel on top. We got there quickly, carried out the drain and filled him up once again with untainted Diesel. He said that he'd be sure to explain to people not to fill up in addition to the wrong fuel but to get it drained immediately.

Recent Fuel Drains in Shenfield

A number of the more usual stories we get from many of our technicians in Shenfield:

We were phoned by a man whose Audi had broken down on a road after a misfuel. "I confused the pumps and pumped the wrong fuel in my car by mistake. These guys arrived and resolved the situation when my car gave up." We purged the petrol from the diesel tank and flushed the fuel lines meticulously afterwards and the gentleman was able to proceed with his sheduled delivery.

Fuel Rescue Shenfield - Shenfield Wrong Fuel Assist

This was certainly what is called an unsociable hour to be up. It was around dawn and hardly anyone was around. It had been quite quiet thus far, and Mark and I were loafing reading through some old magazines. It was a rare tranquil moment in Essex. It was indeed so calm that when the phone eventually rang I leaped! The motorist said: "I have concluded my evening shift and incredibly poured the wrong fuel in a Volkswagen by mistake". I told him to let us know where he was and we headed out, getting to him in Shenfield under half an hour later. The wrong fuel was removed from the car. He said many thanks for showing up so rapidly. As we were heading back to the depot we spotted two women on the edge of the road who looked like they suffered a flat tyre. As a result we stopped and helped them change it, much to their elation.

Wrong Fuel Drain Shenfield - Shenfield Vehicle Misfuel

I'd had a great evening golfing on my holiday and was feeling pleased the following morning as I set off to aid a young family holidaying in Shenfield. They stopped after inserting the wrong fuel into their Land Rover, and the car was around an hour's travel away. I emerged at their location and smiled to myself while I listened to the woman telling her man off for turning out to be so silly. "Just how could you possibly be able to fill the car up using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I tried to tell her that this problem comes to pass on daily basis in Essex and that it is nothing at all to be concerned about, nonetheless he yet still got an ear bashing. Poor guy. Anyway, I drained out all of the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the correct fuel. Watching as they drove down the road I mouthed good bye and thought about what her indoors would tell me in the event that I made the very same blunder... I'd personally under no circumstances live it down!
