Our Areas of Experience :

Do you or your drivers usually misfuel your vehicle? We can resolve any associated issues.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Northumberland we are discovering a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partly caused by drivers being unsure of how to use it (remember: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is mainly deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it asap. And certainly do not switch on the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking place. In cases where you did start the car you would in all probability need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a serious condition to handle in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank can potentially lead to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both situations pretty swiftly.

Be aware though that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will likely be completely wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated near to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

We have been called out to a number of domestic and business premises in Northumberland to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few containers in a garage, as long as we can get to it, we are able to empty it for you.

We will come to re-fill your car in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home.

This was certainly an unsociable time to be awake. It was around 2:30 in the morning and nobody was stirring. It had been pretty uneventful until now, and Ray and I were relaxing browsing some old newspapers. That was a rare tranquil moment in Northumberland. It was indeed so relaxing that the moment the telephone eventually rang I leaped! The voice on the other end told me: "I've only just ended my overnight shift and foolishly poured petrol in the diesel Smart by mistake". I asked him to inform us just where he was located and we set off, arriving in Thornton under 30 minutes later. The fuel was cleaned up and removed from the car. He said thanks a lot for getting there so promptly. As we were going back home we saw two young ladies on the edge of the street who seemed to have a flat. Obviously we pulled up and helped them change it, much to their delight.
