Do you or your employees usually misfuel your vehicle? We can solve any related issues.
AdBlue In your Fuel
In Bromley we have encountered a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of people not understanding the way to use it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to one another on the car.
So, precisely what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As the product is mostly deionised water, it is just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.
If you find you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And most definitely never crank the car - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. Assuming you did start the car you may in all probability need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious condition to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol will cause idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both situations rather simply.
Take note that if the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will probably be totally wet and ineffective.
Boat Fuel Drains
In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a vehicle parking bay we can gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}
Waste Fuel Removal
Got an old fuel tank at the rear of the garden with unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and business premises in Bromley to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even numerous drums in a shed, as long as we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it.
