It was after 9 pm on a Tuesday and even though we were promised a dry evening, it hadn't ceased raining! Dan and I were sitting going over the weekend's footy results, waiting for the seventh fuel drain of the day to come in. In due time we had a phone call from a girl on a company expedition who had gone to the Esso filling station in Hedley Hill and filled petrol in a diesel Hyundai hire car. The poor lady was somewhat distressed apparently, stating "I still cannot believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I had forgot that I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that things like this do happen. She managed to move the vehicle to a secure space and, seeing that it was just a few minutes from us, we could get to the lady fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was drained so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got very wet, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away contented and not so anxious. Yet another job in County Durham done well in my opinion!

Offered Services: Our Specialties:

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over County Durham we have noticed progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partially caused by people being unsure of the way to use it (important: it's actually not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Since AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Whenever you get in this situation don?t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination company. Our experts have the specialised knowledge and experience to get you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally an important situation to address in an automobile - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank is going to cause idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out than water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both circumstances quite expediently.

Take note though that as long as the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a car parking spot we are able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank sitting in the rear of your garden full of out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous private and commercial 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 get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps some drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to get to it, we are able to drain it for you.

Out of fuel in Hedley Hill (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full County Durham Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to fill up your vehicle any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home.
