AdBlue Contamination

All over Oxfordshire we have identified increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of motorists being unsure of the right way to work with it (please note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to each other on the car.

So, what's the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as the product is mostly ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it immediately. And certainly do not crank the vehicle - not even to shift it away from the pump. If you did start the vehicle you may probably have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally an important matter to take care of in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel can lead to idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove in comparison with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both situations fairly easily.

You should know however that whenever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container lying at the rear of your garden containing old, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of private and industrial properties in Oxfordshire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps some drums in a shed, assuming that we can access it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Old Chalford (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a complete Oxfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to refill your vehicle any time you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and refill your car or truck. They are also able to fix the usual problems which may come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even dead batteries due to over-cranking.
