AdBlue In Diesel

In County Durham we are encountering a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of people not knowing the right way to work with it (please note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to each other on the car.

Well, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Since the product is mostly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Call us if it turns out you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to handle every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally an important matter to address in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel can certainly lead to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both cases very swiftly.

Keep in mind though that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will probably be completely wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to parking bay we are able to access the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir lying in the rear of the garden containing unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and commercial premises in County Durham to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even several drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we can get to it, we can drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Broompark (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a full County Durham Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to fill up your vehicle if you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home.

They can also handle any of the normal troubles which might go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Broompark - Broompark Fuel Drain

I had a terrific day golfing during my holiday and was feeling delighted with myself the next working day as I was en route to aid a young family who were holidaying in Broompark. They broken down after adding the wrong fuel into their Mercedes, and they were roughly half an hour away. I turned up at their position and smirked to myself while I listened to the wife berating her husband for being so confused. "Just how could you actually be able to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I wanted to explain that this goes on all the time in County Durham and that it is nothing to stress about, but he yet still got an ear bashing. I felt genuine sympathy for the guy. Anyways, I removed all of the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. While they drove away I mouthed good bye and thought about what my missus would ask me if I did the exact same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances live it down!
