Services We Deliver:

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

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Northumberland we have noticed an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a result of motorists not understanding the right way to to make use of (note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to one another on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Because AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And most certainly do not crank the vehicle - not even to shift it away from the pump. Assuming you did start the vehicle you would almost certainly need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question a significant matter to address in an automobile - especially in current day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your petrol or diesel is likely to contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out than water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both cases rather easily.

Take note however that if ever the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one is going to be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a car parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir laying in the back of your premises containing old, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and business premises in Northumberland for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few drums in an outbuilding, provided that we can access it, we can empty it for you.

I enjoyed a terrific day fishing during my off day and felt satisfied with myself the next day as I headed out to help a young family on vacation in Great Whittington. They had stopped after adding diesel in their Nissan, and the car was around an hour's travel away. I turned up at their car and laughed to myself as I listened to the woman telling her man off for turning out to be so confused. "Just how could you possibly manage to fill the vehicle up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I wanted to clarify that this situation comes to pass continuously in Northumberland and that it's nothing at all to worry about, but he yet still got an earful by his missus. Unlucky boy. Anyhow, I cleaned up and removed all the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the correct fuel. Watching as they drove away I mouthed farewell and considered what her indoors would say to me if I did the very same thing... I would personally under no circumstances live it down!
