AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Surrey we are identifying more and more instances of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially thanks to motorists not knowing the way to work with it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to each other on the vehicle.

So, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because the product is predominantly deionised water, it is like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out right away. And of course do not start up the motor - not even to move it to a parking bay. In cases where you have started the car you would in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious issue to address in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can potentially bring about idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed properly, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both situations rather simply.

Be aware that whenever the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will probably be totally wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a car parking spot we are able to access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir placed at the rear of the garden with old, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous private and commercial premises in Surrey to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even several drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Frith Hill (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a full Surrey Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to fill up your vehicle if you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) to fill up your car or truck. They are also able to fix the most common problems which could go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Frith Hill - Frith Hill Wrong Fuel Drain

I enjoyed a fantastic evening golfing on my day off and felt cheerful the next morning as I was on the way to assist a young couple vacationing in Frith Hill. They had pulled over after adding petrol into their Jaguar, and they were roughly an hour away. I turned up at their location and laughed to myself while I listened to the lady berating her hubby for turning out to be so silly. "Exactly how could you conceivably find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I wanted to explain that this takes place quite frequently in Surrey and that it's nothing at all to be anxious about, even so he yet still got his ear bent. I felt genuine sympathy for the chap. Anyhow, I extracted all of the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave them some appropriate fuel. Watching as they drove off I mouthed good bye and thought about what my missus would tell me if I made the same blunder... I would never ever hear the end of it!
