Our Areas of Competency :

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Brent we are noticing progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a result of drivers being unsure of how to work with it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to each other on the automobile.

So, what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Since the product is predominantly deionised water, it's just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it asap. And most definitely take care not to switch on the motor - not even to shift it into a parking bay. In case you have started the vehicle you would almost certainly have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious matter to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel tank can trigger idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both cases rather swiftly.

Be aware that as long as the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one is going to be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored near to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the storage and drain out the fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

We have been called out to many domestic and business premises in Brent to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages.
