AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Bromley we have found a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a result of people not being aware of how to use it (important: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to each other on the automobile.

Well, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As the product is mostly deionised water, it's as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

If you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained immediately. And most certainly do not start the engine - not even to move it from the pump. Assuming you did start the vehicle you would almost certainly need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious condition to address in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel can easily trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both circumstances quite swiftly.

Take note though that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will probably be totally water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to an automobile parking bay we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel tank laying at the back of your garden containing old, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many private and business properties in Bromley for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several drums in a shed, provided that we are able to get to it, we are able to empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Petts Wood (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a full Bromley Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to re-fill your car if you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at cost) and fill up your car or truck. They can also handle any of the typical issues which can accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Petts Wood - Petts Wood Wrong Fuel Assist

I had enjoyed a wonderful day fishing during my afternoon off and felt contented the following working day as I set out to help a young family on holiday in Petts Wood. They conked out after adding diesel in their Lexus, and were roughly half an hour away. I arrived at their location and smiled while I listened to the lady berating her spouse for turning out to be so silly. "Exactly how could you actually be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I wanted to explain that this goes on regularly in Bromley and that it is nothing at all to stress about, however he in spite of everything got his ear bent by his better half. Unfortunate guy. In any case, I drained out the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave them some correct fuel. As they drove down the road I shouted good-bye and pondered on what my missus would do to me if perhaps I made the same mistake... I would personally never hear the end of it!
