We can assist you with these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Hampshire we are identifying a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent caused by motorists not being totally sure the way to to make use of (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to each other on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is mostly ionised water, it is like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it asap. And most definitely take care not to switch on the vehicle - not even to relocate it into a parking spot. If you have started the car you may most likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant situation to deal with in an automobile - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank will likely trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both cases rather expediently.

Take note that in the event that the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will probably be wholly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a car parking spot we can gain access to the storage and drain out the fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}
