We can help you with all these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Northumberland we are encountering a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a consequence of people not being aware of the right way to work with it (please note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel car? As the product is mainly deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out at once. And certainly do not turn over the car - not even to relocate it from the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you would almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually a significant situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel can easily bring about idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both circumstances quite simply.

Bear in mind though that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got a fuel reservoir laying at the rear of your premises containing old, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many private and industrial properties in Northumberland for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or even numerous containers in a storage shed, as long as we are able to access it, we are able to empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Ancroft (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a comprehensive Northumberland Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to refill your vehicle if you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at cost) to refill your car or truck. They will be able to fix the most common issues which might accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Ancroft - Ancroft Petrol in Diesel

A man called us from Ancroft to state that he pumped petrol in his diesel Vauxhall. "Unbelievable! I can't believe I put unleaded in my nice diesel car!" It took our engineer approximately 50 minutes to completely drain the wrong fuel from the car. He totally cleaned the fuel lines, filter and pumps and then put fresh diesel in the car. The customer was happy and it hadn't cost him dealer rates to get the work properly performed.
