AdBlue In Diesel

All over County Durham we have encountered progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partially caused by people not understanding the way to use it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to each other on the vehicle.

So, what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since the product is primarily ionised water, it is like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And most definitely be careful not to turn over the vehicle - not even to maneuver it from the pump. If you have started the vehicle you may most likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a significant situation to take care of in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank is going to cause idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both circumstances very swiftly.

Remember however that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will likely be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to parking bay we can gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

We've been called out to several domestic and business premises in County Durham to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several drums in an outbuilding, providing we can access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Fulthorpe (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete County Durham Out of Fuel Service. We will help to refill your automobile if you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at pump prices) to fill up your automobile.

Wrong Fuel Assist Fulthorpe - Fulthorpe Fuel Removal

I had enjoyed a terrific afternoon golfing during my off day and felt delighted with myself the next working day as I headed out to assist a new couple who were vacationing in Fulthorpe. They'd pulled over after filling petrol in their Kia, and the car was approximately half an hour away. I showed up at their car and laughed as I listened to the woman telling off her man for turning out to be so foolish. "Just how could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I tried to clarify that this problem happens all the time in County Durham and that it is nothing to stress about, even so he all the same had his ear bent by his wife. Unfortunate chap. Anyways, I drained out all the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some proper fuel. Watching them drive down the road I waved goodbye and wondered what my wife would say to me if perhaps I did the same thing... I would personally never ever hear the end of it!
