AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Lambeth we are finding increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly stemming from drivers not being totally sure the right way to work with it (note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to each other on the car.

Now, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Any time you end up in this predicament do not panic! Call us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our engineers possess the practical skills and working experience to get you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually an important condition to address in a motor vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel may contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both situations quite expediently.

Bear in mind that so long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a vehicle parking bay we can reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel container placed at the back of the garden with aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous private and industrial premises in Lambeth for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even numerous drums in an outbuilding, provided that we can get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Clapham Park (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a full Lambeth Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to re-fill the car in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at cost) to fill the car. They will handle the normal issues which might go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even dead batteries due to over-cranking.
