It was just after 8 pm on a Friday and although we were assured a rainless evening, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Ray and I were resting there talking about the footy results, waiting around for the 8th job to arrive. Eventually we got the phone call from a young lady on a company expedition who had arrived at the BP petrol garage in Durham and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Porsche rental car by mistake. She was quite agitated by the sounds of it, stating "I simply cannot believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot that I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to worry, and also that such things regrettably do happen. She had managed to get the car to a protected area and, as it was only a few miles away from us, we were able to arrive at the customer rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was removed so she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Despite the fact we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away relaxed and much less concerned. One more misfuel correction in Durham well done in my mind!

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Durham we are encountering more and more cases of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent due to people not knowing how to work with it (remember: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to each other on the car.

Well, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

In the event that you end up in this predicament don?t panic! Call us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination company. Our technicians have the specialised knowledge and working experience to get you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually a serious condition to deal with in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol can potentially cause idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can handle both circumstances fairly quickly.

Bear in mind though that as long as the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a car parking spot we should be able to access the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel tank laying at the back of your premises with aged, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and business premises in Durham for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even numerous containers in an outbuilding, provided that we can access it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Durham (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a full Durham Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill your car in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) and fill up your vehicle. They are also able to take care of any of the most common problems which may come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Durham - Durham Fuel Removal

I had a great day golfing during the weekend and was feeling contented the following day as I set out to aid a new family vacationing in Durham. They had conked out after inserting the wrong fuel in their Land Rover, and the car was roughly half an hour's travel away. I showed up at their car and laughed to myself as I heard to the girl telling her partner off for being so daft. "How could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I attempted to explain that this kind of thing happens quite frequently in Durham and that it is nothing at all to worry about, but he in spite of everything got an ear bashing. I felt sorry for the guy. Anyways, I cleaned up and removed the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some correct fuel. As they drove down the road I shouted bon voyage and wondered what her indoors would do to me if I did the same thing... I'd personally never ever hear the end of it!
