It was after 10 pm on a Wednesday and while we were guaranteed a dry day, it hadn't stopped pouring! James and me were sitting talking over the footy results, at the ready for the next fuel drain for the day to arrive. Finally we had a phone call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had pulled into the Esso filling garage in Easington and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Chevrolet rental car. The unfortunate lady was quite agitated by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply can't believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I am so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" We advised her to take it easy and not to worry, also that things like this sadly happen. She was able to relocate the car into a safe space and, because it was no more than a few minutes from the office, we were able to find the customer almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was drained so she could go home to the motel she was staying in. Although we got extremely wet, it was all worth it to watch her drive off relaxed and less concerned. Another misfuel correction in County Durham done well in my books!

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout County Durham we have found a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of motorists not knowing the way to to make use of (please note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to one another on the car.

So, precisely what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? As AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained asap. And absolutely don't switch on the vehicle - not even to move it away from the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you may likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually an important situation to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank can certainly result in idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both cases rather simply.

You should know however that whenever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will probably be thoroughly wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a vehicle parking bay we can access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir placed in the back of your premises with aged, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several private and industrial properties in County Durham to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even numerous containers in a storage shed, as long as we can get to it, we are able to empty it.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Easington (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a comprehensive County Durham Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to fill up your automobile in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill your car. They are also able to handle any of the typical troubles which may go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even flat batteries because of over-cranking.
