AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Redbridge we have encountered increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly thanks to motorists not knowing the way to use it (take note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to each other on the car.

Well, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? As AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out right away. And definitely don't crank the engine - not even to shift it into a parking bay. If you did start the vehicle you will in all likelihood have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly an important condition to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel can easily produce idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out properly, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both situations fairly simply.

Remember that whenever the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will probably be totally water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to reach the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel container laying in the rear of the garden containing unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many private and business properties in Redbridge for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps several containers in a shed, providing we can get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Poplar (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a comprehensive Redbridge Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to refill your vehicle any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump price) and refill the car. They can also take care of the standard issues which may come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Poplar - Poplar Wrong Fuel

A man called us from his residence on a street in Poplar. He pronounced, "My vehicle (a Jaguar) is not starting up and is creating very bad noises when I turn the ignition." He admitted that he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle but then thought he would remedy the problem by putting further Diesel on top. We arrived promptly, carried out the fuel drain and filled it up once more with untainted Diesel. He said that he'd be certain to tell people not to fill up on top of the incorrect fuel but to get it drained right away.
