AdBlue In your Fuel

All around North Yorkshire we are discovering more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent due to motorists not being aware of how to use it (pay attention: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to each other on the car.

So, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because the product is mainly ionised water, it's as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out immediately. And definitely don't start the motor - not even to maneuver it off the pump. If you have started the car you will likely need to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually an important issue to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank can certainly result in idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not remedied correctly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both cases rather quickly.

Keep in mind though that if ever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will probably be wholly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured near to a motor vehicle parking bay we can gain access to the tanks and remove the fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel tank laying in the back of your garden full of aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and business premises in North Yorkshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a storage shed, as long as we are able to reach it, we are able to empty it.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Kirk Hammerton (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete North Yorkshire Out of Fuel Service. We will help to refill your car if you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump price) to fill your car or truck. They will handle the typical problems that might go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

This was what is called the night shift. It was around dawn and hardly anyone was about. It had become pretty uneventful up to now, and me and Ryan were sitting looking through a couple of old papers. This was an unusual quiet time in North Yorkshire. Actually it was in fact so tranquil that the moment my mobile ultimately rang I jumped with surprise! The motorist on the other end explained: "I have only just concluded my evening shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in my Skoda by mistake". I instructed him to let us know exactly where the car was and we left, reaching him in Kirk Hammerton under an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was cleared from the vehicle. He said thanks a lot for getting there so promptly. While we were returning to base we spotted two young ladies at the edge of the street who looked like they had a flat tyre. Obviously we stopped to change it, much to their elation.
