AdBlue Contamination

In Norfolk we have seen more and more cases of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent caused by people not knowing how to use it (be aware: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Now, what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing that the product is primarily ionised water, it is just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it asap. And of course never turn over the engine - not even to move it off the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you will almost certainly have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely an important condition to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel is likely to lead to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of properly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both situations rather swiftly.

Bear in mind however that whenever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one is going to be completely wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container sitting at the back of your garden full of aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several private and industrial premises in Norfolk for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in West Lexham (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a complete Norfolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to re-fill your automobile if you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) to fill up your automobile. They can also handle the typical problems which may go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Several examples:

We not long ago received a call from a young man who put the incorrect fuel in his Lexus in West Lexham. He had broken down on the road. "I was surprised at how speedy you guys were in sending somebody out to aid me after I erroneously unleaded in my diesel car. I'm very grateful".

Wrong Fuel Doctor West Lexham - West Lexham Petrol in Diesel

A man who had sadly put unleaded in his diesel Volvo called us for assistance at the filling station in West Lexham. He thought it would be good to fill up before going on to the nearby recreation park but had put the wrong fuel in his car. "I put petrol instead of diesel which wasn't a smart beginning to our holiday." It was no trouble in any way for our technical engineer to go along and perform the fuel drain. We hope the family enjoyed their getaway.
