These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Bromley we are encountering progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination when a driver has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mainly as a result of people being unsure of the way to to make use of (take note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And of course do not turn over the engine - not even to maneuver it into a parking bay. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you would almost certainly have to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant matter to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel can easily produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied properly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both cases pretty simply.

Bear in mind that in the event that the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to access the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

We've been called out to a number of domestic and industrial premises in Bromley to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages.

Petrol in Diesel Keston - Keston Wrong Fuel Drain

A gentleman phoned us from Keston to state that he pumped petrol in his diesel Volkswagen. "Shocking! I can't believe I put petrol in my beautiful diesel car!" It only took the engineer approximately fifty minutes to completely drain the incorrect fuel from the car. He thoroughly purged the fuel lines, filter and pumps and after that put fresh diesel in the vehicle. The customer was happy and it hadn't cost him dealer prices to have the task properly performed.
