It was close to eight pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it had not stopped pouring! Ryan and me were sitting commenting on the recent tennis rankings, at the ready for the next fuel drain that day to come in. In due time we had the call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had pulled into the BP filling station in Satley and filled petrol in her diesel MINI rental. She was somewhat affected apparently, saying "I simply can't believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I'm so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just told her to take it easy and not to fret, also that things like this regrettably happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a safe spot and, because it was just a short distance from the office, we were able to find the customer swiftly. The wrong fuel was drained and she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got fairly wet, it was all worth the effort to see her drive away relaxed and much less concerned. One more job in County Durham done well in my mind!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over County Durham we are identifying a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of drivers being unsure of how to to make use of (pay attention: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to each other on the car.

Well, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

Any time you end up in this scenario don?t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination business. Our experts have the specialised know-how and working experience to have you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually a significant condition to take care of in an automobile - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel is going to bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both circumstances quite easily.

Take note though that so long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will be totally wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured near to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the storage and remove the fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Have an old fuel reservoir at the back of the garden containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and business premises in County Durham for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps some containers in a garage, assuming that we can get to it, we can empty it.

Out of fuel in Satley (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a complete County Durham Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to re-fill your vehicle any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) to fill up the car.

Wrong Fuel Assist Satley - Satley Fuel Removal

I enjoyed a wonderful evening cycling on my holiday and felt pleased with myself the following morning as I set out to help a new couple away in Satley. They broken down after putting petrol into their SEAT, and they were about half an hour away. I got there at their car and laughed while I heard to the woman telling her husband off for actually being so silly. "Exactly how could you actually be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I wanted to tell her that this problem takes place frequently in County Durham and that it is nothing to be concerned about, but he in spite of everything got an ear bashing by his missus. Unlucky lad. Anyhow, I cleaned up and removed the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some proper fuel. While watching them drive away I shouted farewell and considered what my wife would do to me if I made the exact same mistake... I would personally never ever live it down!
