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

AdBlue Contamination

In Harrow we are finding increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a result of people not being aware of how to to make use of (important: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel car? As AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Contact us if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will attend to all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually an important situation to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol will cause idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out than water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both situations rather expediently.

You should know though that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will likely be completely wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to parking spot we should be able to reach the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}
