Our Areas of Experience :

Helping you get back on the road is our primary goal.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Waltham Forest we have encountered progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly due to drivers not being aware of the right way to to make use of (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to one another on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Since AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And definitely do not crank the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking bay. In the event that you did start the vehicle you would most likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant matter to handle in an automobile - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol may bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both cases fairly simply.

Remember that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will be totally wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Got a fuel container in the back of the garden full of aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several domestic and commercial premises in Waltham Forest for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several containers in an outbuilding, as long as we can access it, we are able to empty it.
