Petrol in Diesel Ferryhill Station - Ferryhill Station Wrong Fuel in Car

I had enjoyed a terrific day cycling on my off day and felt contented the next working day as I set off to help a new couple who were on vacation in Ferryhill Station. They'd stopped after adding petrol in their Chevrolet, and they were around half an hour's drive away. I showed up at their position and laughed to myself while I listened to the girl chastising her hubby for being so confused. "How could you actually find a way to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I wanted to tell her that this problem happens all the time in County Durham and that it is absolutely nothing to stress about, nevertheless he in spite of everything got an ear bashing by his missus. I felt sorry for the boy. At any rate, I removed all the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled it up with the right fuel. As they drove off I shouted so long and wondered what my wife would tell me if I did the very same thing... I'd never ever live it down!

Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we give.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In County Durham we are noticing a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partially a result of people not being aware of the right way to use it (note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to one another on the car.

So, what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained at once. And of course never start up the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking place. In case you have started the car you will likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious matter to address in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank is likely to produce idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both circumstances very quickly.

Be aware that any time the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one is going to be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a car parking bay we will be able to access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}
