It was around 5 pm on a Friday and though we were assured a dry day, it hadn't given up on pouring! Ray and me were resting talking about the recent golf, waiting around for the sixth job of the day to arrive. Eventually we had a call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had pulled into the Shell petrol garage in Gilesgate and filled petrol in a diesel Honda rental by mistake. She was fairly affected by the sounds of it, stating "I can't believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I am just so used to filling my petrol car I had did not remember that I was using a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to fret, and also that such things unfortunately happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle to a protected position and, seeing as it was just a few minutes from where we were, we could reach the lady quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she could return to the motel she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got fairly drenched, it was all worth it seeing her drive away satisfied and not so concerned. One more fuel drain in County Durham well done in my mind!

Our Services:

We can assist you with these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to proceed if you have put Adblue in a Diesel fuel tank? It tends to be devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly if you run the engine with Adblue in the diesel tank. Once the engine has been switched on the Adblue will undoubtedly be injected into your fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, bringing about disastrous and expensive damage to your car's fuel system.

In the event that you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And most certainly don't switch on the car - not even to shift it off of the pump. In the event that you have started the car you may almost certainly have to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is certainly a serious condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel will often cause idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both cases rather easily.

Remember however that if the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will be completely wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to an automobile parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank at the rear of the garden full of unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and business premises in County Durham to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous containers in a garage, assuming that we can reach it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Gilesgate (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a full County Durham Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to re-fill your automobile any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) to refill your car. They will handle any of the most common problems that may come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Gilesgate - Gilesgate Fuel Drain

A man called us from his place on a street in Gilesgate. He said, "My vehicle (a Dacia) is not starting and is creating very bad noises when I turn the key." He said that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle but then reckoned he would solve the problem by putting further Diesel on top. We were on scene quickly, did the fuel drain and filled it up once more with untainted Diesel. He said after that he would be certain to educate people not to fill up in addition to the incorrect fuel but to get it cleaned out right away.
