Do you or your employees frequently misfuel your car? We can resolve any associated issues.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Richmond upon Thames we have noticed a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a result of motorists not knowing the right way to work with it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to each other on the automobile.

Well, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it right away. And definitely never turn over the car - not even to maneuver it to a parking bay. If you did start the vehicle you will likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important issue to handle in a vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel will often bring about idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both circumstances quite expediently.

Bear in mind however that if ever the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will probably be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}
