AdBlue In Diesel

In Oxfordshire we are finding progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is in part as a result of people not knowing how to work with it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to one another on the automobile.

So, precisely what is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel car? As AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

In case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it immediately. And most certainly never start the vehicle - not even to relocate it from the pump. In the event that you have started the vehicle you may almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be a significant issue to handle in a vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank is going to contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both situations quite expediently.

You should know that so long as the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we can access the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank at the back of the garden full of unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial premises in Oxfordshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in a storage shed, assuming that we can access it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Draycot (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a comprehensive Oxfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to refill your automobile in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) to refill your car. They will be able to take care of any of the usual troubles which might come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Draycot - Draycot Wrong Fuel Drain

I appreciated a great afternoon golfing during my holiday and was feeling pleased with myself the next morning as I was en route to assist a new couple who were on holiday in Draycot. They had broken down after filling the wrong fuel into their Porsche, and they were about an hour's travel away. I got there at their location and smiled to myself as I listened to the girl berating her spouse for actually being so silly. "Exactly how could you conceivably be able to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I wanted to explain that this goes on on daily basis in Oxfordshire and that it is absolutely nothing to be concerned about, even so he in spite of everything had an ear bashing by his wife. I felt sorry for the guy. At any rate, I extracted all the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and filled them up with the proper fuel. As they drove away I waved good bye and pondered on what my missus would tell me if perhaps I made the exact same mistake... I would never live it down!
