AdBlue In Diesel

All around County Durham we have encountered progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to some extent stemming from drivers not being totally sure the way to to make use of (remember: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that the product is mostly deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

If you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And of course be careful not to switch on the engine - not even to move it to a parking bay. In case you have started the car you may almost certainly have to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly a significant issue to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in your petrol or diesel can trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both cases pretty simply.

Remember however that as long as the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one is going to be wholly wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a car parking spot we are able to reach the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir placed in the back of the garden full of aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and industrial properties in County Durham for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a garage, as long as we can access it, we can drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Firth Moor (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a comprehensive County Durham Out of Fuel Service. We can come to fill up the car in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill your automobile. They are also able to handle any of the standard problems that might come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Firth Moor - Firth Moor Fuel Removal

A man called us from Firth Moor saying he pumped unleaded into his diesel Honda. "Shocking! I can't believe I put petrol in my lovely diesel car!" It took the specialist approximately fifty minutes to completely drain the incorrect fuel out of the vehicle. He thoroughly cleaned the fuel lines, filter and pumps and put clean diesel in the car. The customer was delighted and it hadn't cost him car dealership prices to get the task properly performed.

Recent Fuel Drains in Firth Moor

Several of the routine troubles we have heard from the technicians in Firth Moor:

We not too long ago had a call about a young man who had put the wrong fuel in his Lexus in Firth Moor. He had ground to a halt on the street. "I couldn't believe how quick you people were in getting an engineer out to aid me when I foolishly petrol in my diesel. Thank you ever so much". It goes without saying that we were on-scene punctually and flushed the engine after draining the petrol from the diesel tank. On arrival the technician said the motorist was raging, but was pleased after the fuel drain.

Wrong Fuel Drain Firth Moor - Firth Moor Fuel Drain

This was exactly the graveyard shift. It was around dawn and hardly anyone was around. It had become rather dead thus far, and me and John were relaxing reading several old magazines. It was an uncommon restful time in County Durham. Actually it was indeed that peaceful that the moment the phone ultimately rang it made me jump! The customer on the opposite end told me: "I have completed my evening shift and stupidly poured the wrong fuel in my diesel Ford". We instructed him to tell us exactly where the vehicle was and we headed out, ending up in Firth Moor no more than half an hour later. The fuel was cleaned up and removed from the motor. He thanked us profusely for coming so fast. As we were going back to base we saw two women at the edge of the highway who seemed to have a flat tyre. So we pulled over to change it, to their elation.

Wrong Fuel Drain Firth Moor - Firth Moor Wrong Fuel Assist

A customer had conked out near a road in Firth Moor. His Ford motor had stopped running and he'd no idea what was faulty until he noticed he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He rang us to get a fuel drain and that is when he told us: "I can not believe that I didn't know that I put the wrong fuel in my car." He said that he had got absolutely no rest the night before and that could have been the reason why.
