AdBlue Contamination

All around Lewisham we are finding progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mainly stemming from people not knowing the way to to make use of (be aware: it's actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to one another on the car.

So, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that the product is primarily deionised water, it's just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

If in case you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And of course don't start the motor - not even to shift it off the pump. If you did start the car you will very likely need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious matter to address in a car - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel tank is likely to produce idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of than water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both situations very quickly.

Be aware though that as long as the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to parking bay we are able to access the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel container lying in the back of your premises full of out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and business premises in Lewisham to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few containers in a garage, as long as we are able to get to it, we are able to empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in East Ham (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a comprehensive Lewisham Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to re-fill your vehicle any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at cost) and fill your car or truck.

Vehicle Misfuel East Ham - East Ham Vehicle Misfuel

I had enjoyed a fantastic afternoon hiking on my day off and was feeling satisfied with myself the next morning as I was en route to help a new couple who were vacationing in East Ham. They'd broken down after adding the wrong fuel into their Mitsubishi, and the car was about half an hour's travel away. I emerged at their car and laughed as I listened to the lady berating her man for actually being so confused. "Precisely how could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I wanted to explain that this kind of thing comes to pass all the time in Lewisham and that it's nothing to fret about, even so he all the same got his ear bent by his wife. I felt sorry for the lad. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed all the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and gave it some right fuel. While watching them drive down the road I mouthed good bye and pondered on what her indoors would tell me in the event that I did the exact same thing... I'd personally never hear the end of it!

Recent Fuel Drains in East Ham

Down below are opinions and good examples of contaminated fuel removal we've undertaken in East Ham:

Now I am certainly not excessively inclined to carrying out work on Sundays, and the other day was the same. I'd only just left the wife and kids following a tasty roast made for me by the wife, and I was en route to help a man because he filled the wrong petrol in his Honda. He was stationed in East Ham hence it wouldn't be a long time before I got to him. Just as I drove up at the rear of the vehicle and started work he explained to me "Thank God! I had my attention on something else and didn't perceive I've put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I caused harm simply by running it?" I explained that generally there probably should not be harm and also that I would personally get the fuel drained as soon as possible for him. Needless to say I drained the contaminated fuel from the car and filled up with the appropriate fuel, and so one more pleased client had the ability to continue on his travelling with no fuss. The guy could not stop thanking me, and this can make earning a living on Sundays in Lewisham a little less painful for me!

Fuel Drain East Ham - East Ham Wrong Fuel

A motorist driving in East Ham phoned us as soon as she managed to get her misfueled vehicle to work. She had filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Jaguar and, like countless prior to her, thought that she could basically fill her car with diesel and it'd run alright. The car was chugging and then it cut out when she arrived at the the front of her work. We immediately went to work on the fuel drain following her call and had it resolved inside one hour whilst she was at work. She came outside soon after and thanked us stating, "I'm extremely pleased you repaired my vehicle."

Fuel Rescue East Ham - East Ham Vehicle Misfuel

He admitted that he had put unleaded in his diesel vehicle however thought he would solve the issue by putting additional Diesel on top. We were on scene quickly, performed the fuel drain and filled it up once again with clean Diesel. He said that he'd be absolutely sure to explain to people not to fill up in addition to the wrong fuel but to have it cleaned out immediately.
