Our Services:
Below are the top services we deliver to our clients.
AdBlue In your Fuel
Throughout Ealing we have discovered more and more cases of AdBlue contamination when a driver has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is in part a result of motorists not being aware of how to to make use of (be aware: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right adjacent to one another on the automobile.
Well, what exactly is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because the product is primarily deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.
If perhaps you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it at once. And most definitely don't crank the vehicle - not even to shift it from the pump. In the event that you have started the vehicle you will most likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually a serious condition to deal with in a vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel is going to contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both cases pretty easily.
Bear in mind however that if the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than 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
In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Vehicle Misfuel Acton - Acton Fuel Drain
I enjoyed a fantastic day cycling on the weekend and was feeling cheerful the following working day as I set off to help a young couple vacationing in Acton. They stopped after inserting the wrong fuel into their Mercedes, and they were close to half an hour away. I turned up at their location and smirked to myself while I heard to the woman telling her hubby off for actually being so silly. "Just how could you conceivably find a way to fill the vehicle up using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I wanted to tell her that this takes place everyday in Ealing and that it's really nothing to get worried about, but he all the same had his ear bent. Unlucky guy. At any rate, I removed the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled it up with the correct fuel. Watching as they drove down the road I mouthed so long and considered what her indoors would do to me if I did the very same thing... I would personally never ever hear the end of it!

Petrol in Diesel Acton - Acton Vehicle Misfuel
This was an unsociable time to be on the road. It was around 3 in the morning and hardly anyone was about. It had been rather dead until now, and Paul and I were sitting about browsing a few old papers. That was an unusual tranquil hour in Ealing. Actually it was so tranquil that the instant the phone inevitably rang it made me jump! The customer on the phone told me: "I only just completed my evening shift and incredibly poured the wrong fuel in the Citroen in error". We told him to let us know exactly where he was situated and we headed out, getting to him in Acton 30 minutes later. The fuel was removed from the car and he said thank you for showing up so quickly. While we were returning home we spotted two young ladies at the side of the street who looked like they suffered a flat tyre. Accordingly we pulled up to help them change it, to their elation.
