AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout County Durham we have discovered a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a consequence of drivers not being aware of how to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that the product is predominantly ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And certainly never turn over the motor - not even to shift it to a parking place. In case you have started the vehicle you may almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question an important condition to address in a car - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank is likely to produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed fully, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both situations pretty quickly.

You should know though that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a car or truck parking bay we can reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel container lying at the rear of your premises containing old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several private and industrial properties in County Durham to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several containers in an outbuilding, provided that we can reach it, we are able to drain it.

Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Hawthorn (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a full County Durham Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill your automobile any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill your vehicle. They will take care of any of the typical problems that might go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to start, as well as flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Hawthorn - Hawthorn Fuel Rescue

A guy had broken down just near a road in Hawthorn. His Nissan engine had stopped operating and he'd no idea what was awry till he realised he put unleaded in his diesel car. He called us to request a fuel drain and it was then when he said to us: "I can't believe that I didn't detect that I put the wrong fuel in my car." He stated that he had gotten no sleep the night before and that could have been precisely why.
