AdBlue In your Fuel

All over County Durham we have noticed more and more instances of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mostly caused by motorists not being totally sure the way to to make use of (important: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what's the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing that the product is primarily deionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

Phone us if it turns out you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to attend to all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a serious issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can contribute to idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both circumstances pretty easily.

Keep in mind though that in the event that the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to an automobile parking bay we will be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel reservoir lying at the back of the garden with unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial premises in County Durham for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even several drums in a shed, as long as we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Vehicle Misfuel Shotley Bridge - Shotley Bridge Wrong Fuel

I had enjoyed a great evening golfing on my off day and felt contented the following morning as I set out to assist a new couple who were on vacation in Shotley Bridge. They'd pulled over after putting the wrong fuel in their Volkswagen, and they were close to an hour away. I showed up at their car and smiled to myself while I listened to the woman chastising her husband for actually being so silly. "How could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I tried to tell her that this happens frequently in County Durham and that it's nothing at all to stress about, but he all the same had his ear bent. I felt sorry for the lad. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed all of the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the right fuel. Watching as they drove away I mouthed hasta la vista and pondered on what her indoors would say to me if perhaps I did the exact same thing... I'd never ever live it down!
