AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Surrey we have discovered progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a consequence of drivers not being aware of how to to make use of (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And most certainly never start the engine - not even to relocate it from the pump. In case you have started the car you may likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be an important situation to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol can certainly cause idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both cases pretty swiftly.

Bear in mind though that if the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel reservoir placed at the rear of the garden full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and industrial properties in Surrey to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a shed, providing we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Guildford (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a comprehensive Surrey Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to re-fill your car in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) to refill your car. They will fix the standard problems which can go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or even flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Guildford - Guildford Wrong Fuel Drain

Yesterday a motorist phoned us just after his Mitsubishi broke down along a road in Guildford. He had mistakenly put unleaded in his diesel motor and managed to drive as far as the street before having to pull over. It was yet in the early hours of the morning and our fuel drainer, who resides locally, reached him in approximately a quarter hour. We managed to drain the wrong fuel and put clean diesel back in to the car. "Thank you for your immediate response, and in particular at 4 a.m., I really appreciate it."

Recent Fuel Drains in Guildford

Tales from our own Guildford employees:

It can't be fun grinding to a halt in a car running on the wrong fuel in the middle of the street. Our last customer who filled her diesel car with petrol (Volkswagen) in Guildford endured precisely this kind of problem: "Obviously I incorrectly filled my car with the wrong fuel last week. I was so bothered about contaminating my fuel that I was in tears. Fortunately I needn't have worried seeing that you were excellent in resolving it."

Vehicle Misfuel Guildford - Guildford Wrong Fuel Drain

A woman from Guildford with a full car of kids in her diesel Lexus had put £30 of petrol at the Co Op petrol station. She contacted us weeping and genuinely upset as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel previously and didn't know what would happen to her vehicle . We assured her that everything should be alright and that she would be on the road quickly. When we arrived on scene she was still distressed but while our fuel drainer got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down since she noticed that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't wrecked. She soon enough brightened up and was up and running saying, "I can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Especially with the kids in the back."

Wrong Fuel Drain Guildford - Guildford Wrong Fuel

I had appreciated a perfect evening golfing during the weekend and felt contented with myself the following morning as I headed out to assist a new couple on holiday in Guildford. They conked out after putting petrol into their Renault, and were close to an hour's drive away. I arrived at their location and smirked as I heard to the woman telling her partner off for being so stupid. "Exactly how could you conceivably find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I wanted to clarify that this problem goes on frequently in Surrey and that it is absolutely nothing to fret about, but he all the same got an ear bashing. Poor lad. At any rate, I removed all of the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled it up with the proper fuel. While watching them drive away I mouthed good bye and wondered what my missus would do to me if ever I did the exact same thing... I would personally never hear the end of it!
