AdBlue Contamination

All over Oxfordshire we have identified more and more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partly a result of motorists not being totally sure the way to work with it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to each other on the vehicle.

So, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it immediately. And most certainly don't crank the engine - not even to move it away from the pump. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you will likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally a significant issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel tank can certainly trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both cases pretty simply.

Take note though that so long as the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will be completely water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a vehicle parking bay we are able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel container sitting in the rear of the garden with unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and business properties in Oxfordshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or even numerous containers in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to reach it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Newton Morrell (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a full Oxfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We will come to refill the car any time you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) to fill up the car. They will handle any of the common troubles which can come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Newton Morrell - Newton Morrell Wrong Fuel Drain

I enjoyed a wonderful afternoon golfing on my off day and was feeling pleased the next morning as I set off to aid a young family who were away in Newton Morrell. They'd conked out after inserting the wrong fuel into their Kia, and the car was around half an hour away. I emerged at their location and laughed while I listened to the wife chastising her hubby for being so foolish. "Just how could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I attempted to clarify that this happens quite frequently in Oxfordshire and that it's absolutely nothing to worry about, and yet he still got an ear bashing by his missus. Unfortunate chap. Anyhow, I cleaned up and removed all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave it some right fuel. Watching them drive off I waved good bye and wondered what her indoors would say to me in the event that I did the exact same thing... I would never live it down!
