AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Southwark we have identified an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree due to motorists not being aware of the right way to use it (important: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Because AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you put AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it immediately. And most definitely don't start up the motor - not even to move it to a parking place. In case you did start the vehicle you will almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be an important situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel will often bring about idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied fully, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both cases quite expediently.

You should know though that as long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will probably be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel tank placed at the back of your garden with unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous domestic and business premises in Southwark for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps some drums in a storage shed, providing we can access it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Dulwich Village (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a full Southwark Run Out of Fuel Service. We will come to refill the car in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill up your vehicle. They will fix the normal troubles which might go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Dulwich Village - Dulwich Village Petrol in Diesel

A customer contacted us from his residence on a street in Dulwich Village. He explained, "My car (a Volkswagen) is not running and is generating terrible noises when I flip the ignition." He said that he had put petrol in his diesel vehicle but then thought he would fix the issue by putting further Diesel on top. We got there promptly, performed the drain and filled him up again with untainted Diesel. He told us he'd be absolutely sure to advise people not to fill up in addition to the incorrect fuel but to get it cleaned out immediately.
