AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Hillingdon we are discovering an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mainly due to motorists not knowing the right way to to make use of (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to one another on the car.

So, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as the product is predominantly deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find yourself in this predicament do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination business. Our technicians have got the practical competence and working experience to get you back on the road promptly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious situation to deal with in a car - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel can potentially result in idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of than water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both situations pretty expediently.

You should know that in the event that the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will be totally wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Wrong Fuel Doctor Harlington - Harlington Wrong Fuel in Car

I'd had a great afternoon hiking during my day off and was feeling pleased the following morning as I headed out to aid a new family on holiday in Harlington. They had pulled over after filling diesel into their Mitsubishi, and the car was approximately an hour away. I turned up at their position and smirked while I heard to the woman telling her partner off for being so silly. "Just how could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I wanted to explain that this problem comes to pass regularly in Hillingdon and that it's really absolutely nothing to worry about, even so he all the same got his ear bent by his missus. I felt genuine sympathy for the boy. Anyhow, I removed the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the correct fuel. Watching them drive away I mouthed good-bye and considered what her indoors would tell me in the event that I made the same blunder... I would personally never hear the end of it!
