Wrong Fuel in Car Carlton, County Durham

Our Areas of Expertise: Services Our Company Offers:

Below are our top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around County Durham we have identified an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly due to drivers not understanding how to use it (remember: it's actually not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing as the product is predominantly deionised water, it's just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And most certainly be careful not to start the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking area. In case you did start the vehicle you will likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be an important situation to address in an automobile - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Having water inside your petrol or diesel will often result in idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain than water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both situations rather simply.

Take note though that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to gain access to the storage and drain out the fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Recent Fuel Drains in Carlton

Some examples:

I am not necessarily that inclined to carrying out work weekends, and last week was the same. I had only just left the wife and kids filled with a wonderful Sunday roast cooked for me by the wife, and I was on my way to help a guy because he filled the wrong petrol in his Volkswagen. He was situated in Carlton therefore I was with him rapidly. As I drove up right behind the vehicle and got out he told me "Thank God! I incredibly had my mind on something else and failed to grasp that I had put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Have I created any kind of damage as a result of starting it?" I said that generally there shouldn't be any kind of damage and also I'd get the fuel drained as quickly as possible. As expected I drained the wrong fuel from the car and filled up with some appropriate fuel, and so another delighted client was able to continue on his trip without the need for bother. He could hardly stop thanking me, and this is exactly what makes earning a living on Sundays in County Durham just a little bit better in my opinion!

Wrong Fuel in Car Carlton - Carlton Wrong Fuel Assist

This was most definitely what we call the graveyard shift. It was roughly sunrise and noone was stirring. It was quite dead up to now, and me and Ray were loafing browsing a number of old papers. This was a rare peaceful moment in County Durham. Actually it was in fact that tranquil that the moment my mobile inevitably rang I jumped with surprise! The person stated: "I just completed my night shift and incredibly filled petrol in a diesel Land Rover by mistake". I asked him to let us know where exactly he was and we hit the road, ending up in Carlton not as much as an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was taken out from the engine and he said thanks for coming out so quickly. As we were coming back home we spotted two women on the side of the road who appeared to have a flat tyre. Obviously we stopped to change it, much to their elation.
