These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Harrow we are encountering progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly stemming from drivers not knowing how to use it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to one another on the car.

Now, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And certainly take care not to start up the motor - not even to move it off of the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you would very likely need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a significant matter to handle in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank is going to result in idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both cases fairly expediently.

Take note however that if the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one is going to be wholly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to parking bay we should be able to access the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel container in the rear of your premises full of aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and industrial properties in Harrow to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous containers in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Harrow on the Hill (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a comprehensive Harrow Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to re-fill your car any time you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) and fill your vehicle. They will fix the standard troubles that might come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
