Services Our Company Offers:

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we provide.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Richmond upon Thames we have noticed increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to motorists not knowing the right way to to make use of (take note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Because AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And of course take care not to start up the motor - not even to shift it from the pump. Assuming you did start the car you will almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant situation to deal with in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel tank will often bring about idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both circumstances rather easily.

Be aware that as long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

We have been called out to numerous domestic and business properties in Richmond upon Thames for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.
