AdBlue In your Fuel

In Greenwich we have found an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a result of motorists not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? As the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If you find you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained immediately. And most definitely be careful not to switch on the car - not even to move it into a parking spot. In case you did start the car you would very likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally a serious condition to take care of in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in fuel will cause idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove when compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both circumstances rather quickly.

Bear in mind though that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated close to a vehicle parking spot we are able to gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir placed in the rear of your garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and business premises in Greenwich to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few containers in an outbuilding, as long as we can get to it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Out of fuel in Blackheath Park (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a complete Greenwich Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to re-fill the car any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump price) and fill the car. They can also take care of any of the common troubles that might go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Blackheath Park - Blackheath Park Wrong Fuel in Car

A gentleman rang us from his residence on a close in Blackheath Park. He explained, "My car (a Renault) is not starting up and is creating terrible sounds when I flip the ignition." He said that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car but then reckoned he would resolve the issue by putting extra Diesel on top. We were on scene promptly, did the drain and filled him up again with clean Diesel. He said that he would be absolutely sure to inform people not to fill up over the incorrect fuel but to have it cleaned out right away.
