AdBlue In Diesel

In Hounslow we are noticing a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to some extent stemming from motorists being unsure of the way to use it (be aware: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to each other on the car.

Well, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is primarily deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it right away. And of course don't crank the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking place. If you did start the vehicle you may in all likelihood need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious condition to take care of in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the petrol or diesel will likely lead to idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both situations quite easily.

Bear in mind however that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will be totally wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a car parking spot we will be able to reach the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir in the back of your premises containing unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and business properties in Hounslow for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even some containers in a shed, if we can access it, we can empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Isleworth (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a complete Hounslow Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to refill your car in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) to fill up your automobile. They will take care of any of the typical troubles which could accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, as well as flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Isleworth - Isleworth Petrol in Diesel

A man phoned us from his place on a road in Isleworth. He exclaimed, "My vehicle (a Fiat) is not running and is producing awful noises when I flip the ignition." He said that he put the wrong fuel in his diesel car but then imagined he would solve the problem by putting extra Diesel on top. We got there quickly, carried out the drain and filled it up again with untainted Diesel. He told us that he'd be absolutely sure to advise people not to fill up on top of the wrong fuel but to get it drained immediately.
