Our Areas of Expertise :

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

AdBlue Contamination

All over Croydon we are encountering increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of drivers not understanding how to to make use of (take note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to one another on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? As AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained asap. And certainly be careful not to start the vehicle - not even to shift it off the pump. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you may almost certainly need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important situation to address in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel is going to lead to idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both situations very swiftly.

Bear in mind however that any time the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to access the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

We have been called out to many privately owned and business premises in Croydon to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages.
