Our Areas of Competency :

Do you or your drivers often misfuel your vehicle? We can solve any connected problems.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you should do in case you may have put Adblue in your Diesel fuel tank? Adblue is certainly harmful to your car's fuel system, particularly any time you started the car with Adblue in your diesel fuel tank. Once the engine has been started up the Adblue will be injected into the fuel lines and will quickly start to crystalise, bringing about catastrophic and expensive problems to your car's fuel system.

In the case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And of course don't turn over the engine - not even to move it to a parking place. If you did start the vehicle you will likely need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be an important issue to deal with in a car - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel may lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both circumstances pretty quickly.

Remember that if ever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one is going to be totally wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Wrong Fuel Lower Holloway - Lower Holloway Wrong Fuel Doctor

I had appreciated a wonderful evening cycling on my off day and felt satisfied with myself the following working day as I set off to help a young family holidaying in Lower Holloway. They had stopped after putting petrol into their Honda, and were roughly half an hour's travel away. I turned up at their car and smirked as I heard to the woman telling her partner off for being so confused. "Precisely how could you actually be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I wanted to clarify that this occurs all the time in Islington and that it's absolutely nothing to worry about, and yet he yet still got an earful by his better half. Unlucky guy. Anyway, I removed the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. While they drove off I mouthed so long and pondered on what her indoors would ask me if ever I made the same blunder... I'd never hear the end of it!
