We are ready to take the wrong fuel job.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over County Durham we are identifying progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent stemming from people being unsure of how to to make use of (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to one another on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? As the product is mostly ionised water, it's like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

In case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And definitely do not turn over the motor - not even to relocate it off the pump. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you will in all probability have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly an important condition to take care of in an automobile - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel will often contribute to idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both situations fairly easily.

Bear in mind though that any time the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we can access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container placed in the rear of the garden full of unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous domestic and industrial premises in County Durham to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even several containers in a shed, as long as we can reach it, we are able to empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Harelaw (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a full County Durham Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to fill up your automobile if you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill your vehicle. They will take care of any of the typical troubles that may go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Stories from our Harelaw team:

We completed a wrong fuel removal job on the drive of a lovely residential home in Harelaw not so long ago. "I put petrol in my diesel car and was able to nearly get home when my car broke down." Our specialist went out, regardless that it was quite late at night, and performed a fuel drain and purge on the Kia to everyone's satisfaction.

Petrol in Diesel Harelaw - Harelaw Vehicle Misfuel

This was most definitely what is called the graveyard shift. It was roughly 3:30 in the morning and noone was around. It had been fairly dead thus far, and Brian and I were sitting about reading a number of old articles. That was an uncommon calm hour in County Durham. Actually it was in fact so quiet that when my mobile ultimately rang it made me jump! The customer on the phone explained: "I've completed my night shift and incredibly poured the wrong fuel in the BMW by mistake". I asked him to let us know where he was and we set off, reaching him in Harelaw not as much as 30 minutes later. The fuel was cleaned up and removed from the vehicle and he said thanks a lot for getting there so promptly. As we were heading back home we saw two women on the edge of the road who looked like they suffered a flat tyre. So we stopped and helped them change it, much to their elation.

Wrong Fuel Harelaw - Harelaw Wrong Fuel Doctor

I had enjoyed a terrific evening golfing on my off day and felt satisfied with myself the following working day as I headed out to help a new family away in Harelaw. They broken down after adding diesel into their Smart, and they were close to an hour away. I arrived at their location and smiled to myself while I heard to the woman chastising her partner for being so foolish. "Precisely how could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I attempted to clarify that this situation happens quite frequently in County Durham and that it's absolutely nothing to be anxious about, and yet he still had an ear bashing by his missus. Unfortunate chap. Anyways, I drained the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some right fuel. While watching them drive down the road I mouthed bon voyage and thought about what my wife would do to me if ever I did the very same thing... I would personally never ever live it down!
