Services We Deliver:

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we offer.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Merton we are finding progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a result of people not knowing how to to make use of (important: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to each other on the car.

Well, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Because AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it asap. And of course be careful not to crank the motor - not even to relocate it to a parking area. In the instance that you did start the car you would very likely have to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually a significant situation to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank can certainly bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both cases very quickly.

Keep in mind however that so long as the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}
