It was just after six pm on a Tuesday and although we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't given up on pouring! Ryan and me were relaxing talking about the weekend's footy rankings, prepared for the next job that day to arrive. Before long we received a phone call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had pulled into the Shell petrol garage in Aykley Heads and put petrol in a diesel Dacia rental in error. She was fairly distressed apparently, crying "I simply cannot believe that I have destroyed the car! I'm just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I completely forgot I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to fret, also that these things unfortunately often happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a safe area and, since it was only a few minutes from our van, we could find the lady without delay. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she could once again go back to the hotel she was living in. Despite the fact that we got extremely wet, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away calm and not so worried. A job in County Durham done well in my opinion!

Listed here are the top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

What to do in case you have poured Adblue in a Diesel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that?s made of a mix of urea and ionized water (67.5%).Adblue tends to be disastrous to your car's fuel system, especially in cases where you run the engine with Adblue in your fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been started the Adblue will likely be injected into the fuel lines and will promptly begin to crystalise, leading to disastrous and expensive problems to your car's fuel system.

Contact us if you are going through AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can fix different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious issue to deal with in a car - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank will often produce idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not remedied effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both situations fairly simply.

Keep in mind that whenever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.
