AdBlue In Diesel

All around County Durham we are discovering a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a result of people not knowing the way to to make use of (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And certainly do not crank the car - not even to maneuver it from the pump. In case you have started the car you would likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually an important matter to take care of in an automobile - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Water in the fuel can potentially produce idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both situations rather expediently.

You should know however that as long as the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will probably be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured close to a car or truck parking spot we can reach the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel reservoir laying at the back of your garden with old, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of private and business premises in County Durham for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in a storage shed, as long as we can get to it, we are able to empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Elvet Hill (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a comprehensive County Durham Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to re-fill your vehicle any time you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at cost) to refill the car. They are also able to take care of the typical problems which can go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Elvet Hill - Elvet Hill Wrong Fuel Assist

Last week a young man telephoned us soon after his MG cut out along a street in Elvet Hill. He had unintentionally put the wrong fuel in the diesel vehicle and drove to the road before needing to pull up. It was really early in the day and our engineer, who stays nearby, reached him in less than a quarter hour. We were able to take out the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel once again in to the car. "Thank you for your immediate response, and in particular at 1 a.m., I appreciate it."
