It was just after 5 pm on a Tuesday and although we were assured a dry and fresh day, it hadn't ceased pouring! Ray and me were relaxing discussing the rugby results, ready for the seventh telephone call for the day to arrive. Eventually we had a phone call from a woman on a business trip who had pulled into the Tesco petrol garage in Harold Wood and filled petrol in a diesel Skoda lease car in error. The poor thing was very troubled it seemed, telling me "I simply can't believe I have wrecked the car! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I had didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to be concerned, and that such things sadly often happen.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Havering we are finding progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly due to motorists not understanding the right way to use it (important: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to each other on the car.

So, precisely what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Since the product is mostly deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Call us in the event that you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will handle every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be a significant condition to deal with in an automobile - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel will often produce idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both situations quite expediently.

Keep in mind however that if ever the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to an automobile parking bay we should be able to access the storage and remove the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel container lying in the rear of your premises full of out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial premises in Havering to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps numerous drums in a garage, provided that we are able to reach it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Harold Wood (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a complete Havering Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to fill up your car in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) and fill up the car.
