Wrong Fuel in Car New Botley, Oxfordshire

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Oxfordshire we are finding increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly thanks to people not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (remember: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to one another on the car.

Well, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing that the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained asap. And most definitely take care not to switch on the engine - not even to shift it off of the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you may very likely have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question an important condition to deal with in a vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel will often lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both cases quite quickly.

You should know though that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Directly below are feed-back and good examples of contaminated fuel removal we have carried out in New Botley:

I am not necessarily excessively interested in carrying out work on Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was no different. I'd only just left the wife and kids filled with a lovely lunch cooked for us by the missus, and I was off to help a fellow after he filled the incorrect fuel in his Ford. He was stationed in New Botley thus I arrived there almost immediately. Just as I pulled up at the rear of the car and got busy draining he told me "Thank God! I foolishly had my attention on other considerations and did not realise I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Is it possible I brought on damage simply by running it?" I stated generally there shouldn't be any damage and that I'd remove the contaminated fuel as soon as possible. It goes without saying that I got the wrong fuel drained from the vehicle and filled up with some appropriate fuel, and so another content client had the ability to continue on their ride without the need for fuss. The guy did not stop saying thanks to me, and that is exactly what helps make earning a living on Sundays in Oxfordshire just a tiny bit better for me personally!
