We can help you with these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over County Durham we are finding a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of motorists not understanding the way to use it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to one another on the car.

Well, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained asap. And absolutely take care not to crank the car - not even to relocate it away from the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you will likely need to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally a serious matter to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in fuel will result in idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both cases rather expediently.

Take note however that if the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to an automobile parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Have an old fuel tank laying at the back of your garden full of unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial premises in County Durham for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages.

Wrong Fuel in Car Hawthorn - Hawthorn Vehicle Misfuel

I'd had a wonderful day golfing on my holiday and felt cheerful the following day as I set out to help a young family who were holidaying in Hawthorn. They had broken down after inserting diesel in their Mercedes, and the car was about half an hour away. I turned up at their position and smirked while I listened to the girl telling her husband off for being so confused. "Exactly how could you possibly find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I wanted to tell her that this takes place all the time in County Durham and that it is nothing to be concerned about, nevertheless he all the same got an earful by his wife. Poor chap. In any case, I cleaned up and removed all the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some correct fuel. While watching them drive down the road I mouthed hasta la vista and considered what her indoors would ask me if perhaps I did the exact same thing... I would under no circumstances live it down!
