AdBlue Contamination

All over County Durham we have seen increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent due to motorists not knowing the way to use it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what's the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? As AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Contact us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can fix every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually an important situation to address in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel will contribute to idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out fully, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both circumstances fairly expediently.

Keep in mind though that if the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be totally wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Fuel Removal Hurworth-on-Tees - Hurworth-on-Tees Fuel Rescue

I had a wonderful afternoon hiking during my off day and was feeling pleased with myself the next morning as I set off to assist a young couple who were on holiday in Hurworth-on-Tees. They stopped after filling the wrong fuel in their Renault, and were about half an hour away. I got there at their location and smirked while I heard to the wife berating her husband for actually being so confused. "Just how could you possibly manage to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she told him. I attempted to explain that this takes place quite frequently in County Durham and that it is nothing at all to be concerned about, nevertheless he in spite of everything had an ear bashing. Unlucky guy. In any case, I extracted all the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the proper fuel. While they drove down the road I waved so long and pondered on what my wife would ask me in the event that I made the same blunder... I would personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
