AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout County Durham we are discovering a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree caused by motorists not being aware of how to to make use of (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to one another on the car.

Well, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained immediately. And of course be careful not to turn over the engine - not even to relocate it to a parking spot. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will probably have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be an important matter to address in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Having water in fuel can trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both situations very easily.

Be aware that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a car parking spot we should be able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir laying at the back of your premises with unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous private and industrial premises in County Durham to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a storage shed, as long as we can reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Middleton in Teesdale (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a comprehensive County Durham Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill the car in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) and fill up your vehicle. They will deal with the common issues that could come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Middleton in Teesdale - Middleton in Teesdale Petrol in Diesel

I enjoyed a fantastic afternoon golfing on my day off and felt satisfied the next day as I headed out to aid a new couple on holiday in Middleton in Teesdale. They'd broken down after filling petrol into their Hyundai, and the car was close to an hour away. I got there at their car and smiled to myself as I heard to the woman chastising her partner for actually being so daft. "How could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I tried to explain that this kind of thing goes on on a regular basis in County Durham and that it is nothing at all to get worried about, however he in spite of everything got his ear bent by his wife. Unfortunate lad. Anyhow, I removed all the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave it some proper fuel. As they drove down the road I mouthed hasta la vista and wondered what her indoors would tell me in the event that I made the very same blunder... I would never live it down!

It can't be fun grinding to a halt in a car contaminated with the improper fuel halfway down the street. One of our last customers who filled her car with the incorrect fuel (Kia) in Middleton in Teesdale ran into literally that kind of difficulty: "Unfortunately I mistakenly put unleaded in my diesel car . I was so distressed about my mistake that I was besides myself. However I shouldn't have concerned myself because you were terrific in fixing it."

Fuel Removal Middleton in Teesdale - Middleton in Teesdale Petrol in Diesel

It truly was an unsociable time to be awake. It was about 2:30am and almost noone was around. It had been pretty uneventful so far, and me and Paul were loafing reading several old articles. It was a rare restful time in County Durham. It was in fact so tranquil that the moment the telephone rang I jumped with surprise! The voice stated: "I've just completed my evening shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in my diesel MINI". I asked him to tell us where the vehicle was and we left, arriving in Middleton in Teesdale under 30 minutes later. The fuel was cleaned up and removed from the car and he thanked us for arriving so rapidly. As we were going back to base we saw two girls on the edge of the highway who appeared to have a flat. Obviously we got out to help them change it, to their elation.
