AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around County Durham we are encountering progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is in part caused by people not being aware of how to work with it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to one another on the car.

Now, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that the product is mostly ionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

In case you discover youself to be in this scenario don?t panic! Call us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our technicians possess the specialised knowledge and working experience to get you back on your way promptly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important matter to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel can contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both circumstances fairly easily.

Keep in mind though that so long as the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will probably be wholly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to access the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

We have been called out to several domestic and industrial premises in County Durham for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or even numerous drums in an outbuilding, if we can get to it, we are able to drain it for you.
