We can assist you with these mis-fuel mistakes.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Havering we have noticed increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree as a result of drivers being unsure of how to work with it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it right away. And certainly be careful not to start up the car - not even to shift it away from the pump. If perhaps you have started the car you will very likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel tank can cause idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both circumstances quite swiftly.

Take note that if the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container at the rear of your garden full of unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial premises in Havering to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few drums in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to access it, we are able to drain it.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Coldharbour (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a comprehensive Havering Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to refill your automobile in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at cost) to refill your automobile. They are also able to handle the normal troubles that can come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Coldharbour - Coldharbour Wrong Fuel in Car

A person contacted us from his residence on a close in Coldharbour. He pronounced, "My car (a Volvo) is not starting up and is producing very bad sounds when I flip the ignition." He admitted that he had put unleaded in his diesel car but then believed he would solve the problem by putting further Diesel on top. We arrived promptly, performed the fuel drain and filled it up once again with clean Diesel. He told us he would be absolutely sure to explain to people not to fill up in addition to the wrong fuel but to get it cleaned out immediately.
