Offered Services:

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we provide.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Northumberland we are identifying a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a result of people not understanding the way to work with it (important: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to each other on the automobile.

So, what's the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it asap. And absolutely take care not to switch on the vehicle - not even to move it away from the pump. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you will probably have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, can be an important situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel can potentially result in idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain than water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both cases fairly expediently.

Remember though that so long as the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked near to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to access the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel reservoir placed at the back of the garden full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial premises in Northumberland to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even several containers in a storage shed, provided that we can access it, we are able to drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Howtel (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a complete Northumberland Out of Fuel Service. We can help to refill the car any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) to refill your car. They can also fix the usual troubles that might go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Howtel - Howtel Wrong Fuel Assist

I'd had a great day cycling on my afternoon off and felt contented the next day as I was en route to assist a young couple away in Howtel. They conked out after inserting the wrong fuel in their Honda, and the car was around half an hour away. I got there at their car and smiled as I heard to the girl telling her husband off for actually being so foolish. "How could you even be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I wanted to tell her that this situation goes on all the time in Northumberland and that it's really nothing at all to worry about, nevertheless he yet still got his ear bent by his wife. I felt genuine sympathy for the chap. Anyhow, I drained out the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some appropriate fuel. As they drove down the road I mouthed goodbye and pondered on what her indoors would say to me if ever I made the same mistake... I'd never live it down!
