AdBlue Contamination

In Oxfordshire we are noticing an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly thanks to motorists not being aware of the way to to make use of (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to one another on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car? As AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And obviously be careful not to switch on the vehicle - not even to maneuver it into a parking area. In case you did start the vehicle you would likely have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually an important condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Having water inside your petrol or diesel can potentially result in idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out properly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. However we can solve both circumstances pretty easily.

Remember though that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one is going to be totally wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel tank sitting at the rear of your premises full of unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial properties in Oxfordshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several containers in a storage shed, if we can reach it, we can empty it.

We're able to help to fill up your automobile if you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home.

Wrong Fuel Headington - Headington Wrong Fuel

A week ago a driver phoned us right after his Jaguar died along a road in Headington. He had unintentionally put unleaded in the diesel motor and got as far as the road before having to pull up. It was in the early hours of the morning and our engineer, who stays locally, reached him in less than twenty minutes. We were able to take out the wrong fuel and put clean diesel yet again in the car. "Genuine kudos to you for your timely response, and in particular at 6 a.m., I am grateful for it."
