This is what we do best.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Northumberland we are noticing a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a result of motorists not being aware of the way to use it (remember: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing as the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

In the event that you put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And obviously don't switch on the vehicle - not even to relocate it into a parking spot. In the event that you have started the car you would likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious situation to handle in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can potentially bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of fully, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both situations fairly swiftly.

Bear in mind however that in the event that the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to an automobile parking bay we are able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

We have been called out to many domestic and industrial properties in Northumberland to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages.
