AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Wandsworth we have discovered an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a result of motorists not being totally sure how to use it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? As AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it immediately. And most definitely be careful not to switch on the engine - not even to maneuver it from the pump. In case you did start the car you will very likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly an important situation to address in a car - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol will likely bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not remedied correctly, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we can solve both circumstances rather easily.

Be aware however that if ever the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one is going to be totally wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to parking bay we should be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank sitting in the rear of your premises containing unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many private and industrial premises in Wandsworth to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or even some containers in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to access it, we can drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Putney Heath (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a full Wandsworth Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to refill your vehicle any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) to fill up your car. They are also able to handle the common issues which may go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or maybe flat batteries due to over-cranking.
