Wrong Fuel in Car Locksbottom, Bromley

Our Areas of Expertise: Services Our Company Offers:

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Bromley we are identifying more and more cases of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly due to people not being totally sure the way to to make use of (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to one another on the car.

Now, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel car? As AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And definitely don't start the car - not even to move it away from the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you will most likely need to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question a significant issue to address in a car - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol is likely to result in idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not addressed properly, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both situations very simply.

Take note though that whenever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car parking spot we will be able to gain access to the storage and remove the fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}
