Our Areas of Competence :

Do you or your drivers usually misfuel your car? We can fix any related issues.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Hertfordshire we are finding progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partially thanks to drivers not being totally sure the way to use it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out at once. And most definitely don't crank the engine - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. If you have started the vehicle you would almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a serious condition to handle in an automobile - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel can certainly contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove than water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both cases very swiftly.

Be aware though that as long as the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will likely be totally wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored near to parking bay we will be able to access the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

We've been called out to a number of private and business properties in Hertfordshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.
