AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over County Durham we are discovering a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a result of people being unsure of how to use it (note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is mainly ionised water, it's like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

In case you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And of course take care not to start up the motor - not even to move it into a parking bay. In case you have started the vehicle you may probably need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a significant situation to take care of in an automobile - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel can certainly result in idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both situations pretty easily.

Bear in mind though that if the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one is going to be completely wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

We have been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial premises in County Durham for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages.

Vehicle Misfuel Haswell Plough - Haswell Plough Wrong Fuel Doctor

I'd had a terrific day fishing during my afternoon off and felt satisfied with myself the next day as I headed out to assist a young family on vacation in Haswell Plough. They had conked out after putting the wrong fuel into their Ford, and the car was close to an hour's drive away. I got there at their position and laughed as I heard to the woman telling her partner off for being so stupid. "Just how could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I tried to tell her that this kind of thing comes to pass quite frequently in County Durham and that it is absolutely nothing to stress about, nonetheless he yet still got his ear bent by his wife. Unlucky guy. Anyway, I drained all the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave it some appropriate fuel. Watching as they drove down the road I shouted good bye and thought about what my wife would ask me in the event that I did the same thing... I would personally under no circumstances live it down!
