AdBlue Contamination

All over Oxfordshire we are finding increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a consequence of motorists being unsure of the way to work with it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to one another on the car.

Now, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is primarily ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And of course be careful not to crank the car - not even to maneuver it to a parking spot. In case you did start the vehicle you may probably have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, can be a significant condition to handle in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank can cause idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain than water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both cases very expediently.

You should know however that so long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will be totally wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored near to parking bay we will be able to access the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel tank placed at the rear of the garden containing out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of private and commercial premises in Oxfordshire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or even a number of containers in a storage shed, as long as we can get to it, we could certainly empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Over Kiddington (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full Oxfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to refill your vehicle if you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and refill your car. They will be able to fix the typical troubles that may come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Over Kiddington - Over Kiddington Wrong Fuel in Car

I had appreciated a terrific day hiking on my off day and felt satisfied with myself the following working day as I headed out to help a new family who were away in Over Kiddington. They stopped after filling the wrong fuel in their Skoda, and the car was close to an hour's travel away. I turned up at their position and smirked as I listened to the gal telling her husband off for actually being so confused. "Exactly how could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I attempted to tell her that this situation comes to pass continuously in Oxfordshire and that it's absolutely nothing to be anxious about, however he yet still had an earful. Unlucky chap. In any case, I drained the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the correct fuel. As they drove down the road I mouthed good bye and thought about what my wife would tell me in the event that I did the same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
