Our Areas of Experience :

Do you or your drivers usually misfuel your car? We can fix any associated issues.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout County Durham we have found a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a degree a result of motorists not understanding the right way to to make use of (note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to each other on the automobile.

Now, what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that the product is mostly deionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And obviously never start up the engine - not even to relocate it away from the pump. In cases where you did start the vehicle you will very likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious matter to address in a car - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank will likely result in idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both circumstances quite easily.

Bear in mind however that whenever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will probably be totally wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked near to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to access the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}
