Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we offer.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Harrow we are encountering increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a result of people not understanding the way to to make use of (important: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to one another on the vehicle.

So, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As the product is mainly ionised water, it's as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

If in case you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And obviously be careful not to start the car - not even to move it to a parking spot. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you may in all probability need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually a serious matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank will likely produce idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain in comparison with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both cases very easily.

You should know that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will probably be wholly wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a vehicle parking bay we are able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir at the back of your premises containing unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous private and commercial premises in Harrow to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even several containers in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to get to it, we can drain it for you.

Out of fuel in Queensbury (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a comprehensive Harrow Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to fill up your vehicle any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home.

Fuel Rescue Queensbury - Queensbury Vehicle Misfuel

I had appreciated a terrific afternoon fishing on my holiday and felt contented the following day as I was en route to help a young family on holiday in Queensbury. They had stopped after putting the wrong fuel in their Fiat, and were close to half an hour away. I emerged at their position and laughed while I heard to the wife telling her husband off for being so foolish. "How could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I attempted to explain that this takes place all the time in Harrow and that it's absolutely nothing to stress about, nonetheless he yet still had an ear bashing. Poor boy. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the correct fuel. Watching while they drove off I mouthed goodbye and considered what my missus would do to me if I made the same mistake... I'd under no circumstances live it down!
