AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Camden we have identified progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly a result of people not knowing the right way to use it (important: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what's the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Because AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And certainly take care not to start the vehicle - not even to move it into a parking spot. In cases where you have started the vehicle you would most likely need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be a significant matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel can cause idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed correctly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both circumstances pretty quickly.

Take note though that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated close to parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel tank at the back of the garden containing unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and industrial premises in Camden to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in an outbuilding, provided that we can get to it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Travistock (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a full Camden Out of Fuel Service. We will come to re-fill the car any time you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) and fill up your car or truck. They are also able to handle any of the usual issues that can go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Travistock - Travistock Wrong Fuel in Car

A gentleman called us from his house on a street in Travistock. He explained, "My vehicle (a Ford) is not running and is creating dreadful noises when I flip the key." He admitted that he put petrol in his diesel vehicle but then thought he would resolve the problem by putting further Diesel on top. We were on scene promptly, did the drain and filled him up again with clean Diesel. He told us he'd be certain to tell people not to fill up on top of the wrong fuel but to get it drained promptly.
