AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout County Durham we have discovered increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly a result of drivers not being totally sure the right way to use it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to one another on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that the product is primarily ionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

Call us if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can correct all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a significant condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol may well produce idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both circumstances rather simply.

You should know though that if the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will probably be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to an automobile parking bay we are able to gain access to the storage and drain out the fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel tank placed in the back of your premises containing unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial properties in County Durham to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous drums in a shed, assuming that we can get to it, we can empty it.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Elstob (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a comprehensive County Durham Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up your car in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) and fill your automobile. They will handle any of the most common issues that might come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Elstob - Elstob Fuel Drain

A man called us from Elstob to say he had pumped the wrong fuel into his diesel Fiat. "Shocking! How could I put unleaded in my nice diesel car!" It took the engineer about 50 minutes to completely drain the wrong fuel from the vehicle. He carefully flushed the fuel system and put fresh diesel in the car. The customer was delighted and it didn't cost him dealership prices to get the job properly performed.

Recent Fuel Drains in Elstob

Very common wrong fuel drain examples in Elstob:

I'm not necessarily too inclined to doing work Sundays, and the other day was the same. I had just come away from the family after having a fantastic dinner made for us by the missus, and I was off to help a guy because he filled the wrong petrol in his Renault. He was stationed in Elstob and so I arrived with him rapidly. Just as I pulled up at the vehicle and stepped out he told me "Thank the Lord! I incredibly had my concentration on other considerations and did not ascertain I'd put diesel in my petrol car. Is it possible I brought on any problems as a result of running it?" I explained that there probably should not be any kind of harm and that I would personally remove the contaminated fuel immediately. Naturally I got the wrong fuel drained from the vehicle and put in some correct fuel, and thus another delighted client could continue on his ride with no difficulty. The guy couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and this is what makes earning a living on Sundays in County Durham that tiny bit better in my opinion!

Vehicle Misfuel Elstob - Elstob Wrong Fuel Assist

A person contacted us from his Citroen after he had broken down on the hectic street. "I incorrectly put petrol in my diesel car and I shortly discovered all about it a couple of miles down the road!" Luckily we were in a position to get out to him in a relatively quick time, taking into account the fact it was rush-hour, and he was shortly back behind the wheel.

Wrong Fuel Elstob - Elstob Wrong Fuel

A guy had conked out near a street in Elstob. His Land Rover motor had ceased functioning and he'd no clue what was faulty until eventually he noticed he put petrol in his diesel vehicle. He phoned us to get a fuel drain and it was then when he explained to us: "I cannot believe that I didn't realise that I had put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had gotten no sleep the night before and that could have been the reason.
