We can assist you with these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Merton we are finding progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to people not being totally sure the right way to work with it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to one another on the car.

Well, precisely what is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is mostly deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

In the case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely do not start up the motor - not even to move it to a parking area. If you did start the car you would probably need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question an important matter to address in an automobile - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in your diesel or petrol can easily cause idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both cases pretty expediently.

Bear in mind that if the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to an automobile parking spot we will be able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

We have been called out to several private and industrial properties in Merton to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in a shed, providing we can reach it, we can empty it.
