AdBlue In your Fuel
Throughout Croydon we have discovered an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is in part caused by people not knowing how to work with it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to each other on the car.
So, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.
If you find you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it at once. And most certainly be careful not to switch on the car - not even to maneuver it into a parking place. If perhaps you have started the car you will likely need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters replaced.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be an important issue to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol will contribute to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both situations very expediently.
Bear in mind though that whenever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one is going to be totally wet and ineffective.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured near to a car or truck parking spot we can reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}
Removal of Waste Fuel
Have a fuel reservoir laying at the back of your garden containing aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many private and industrial premises in Croydon for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous drums in a garage, assuming that we can access it, we can certainly drain it.
Re-Fueling Service
Out of fuel in New Addington (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a full Croydon Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to fill up the car any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home.

It can't be nice being stranded in a car contaminated with the improper fuel on the street. One of our last customers who filled up her tank with the wrong fuel (Citroen) in New Addington encountered exactly that kind of nightmare: "You may already know I accidently put the wrong fuel in my car last week. I was so distressed about my mistake that I was besides myself. And yet I shouldn't have worried because you were marvelous in resolving my problem."
