Wrong Fuel Heighington - Heighington Wrong Fuel

A rather concerned customer phoned us from the Texaco petrol station at County Durham to advise us that he had put petrol into his diesel Kia; he wasn't actually sure how he'd done it. We informed him it was no hassle and before long had our engineer with him to drain the contaminated fuel from his tank. Having removed the incorrect fuel, he was soon back driving. He told us; "I can't believe I filled my car with the wrong fuel. And the person who was sent to perform the fuel drain was especially excellent - he did not make me look like a plonker."

We care for your car accompanied by our full registration and insurance coverage. No matter if you are in an ancient rust-bucket or a new sports-car we can help you.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout County Durham we have seen an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part a result of people being unsure of how to use it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to one another on the car.

Now, what's the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Since the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

Should you get in this position do not panic! Call us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our experts possess the technical competence and working experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant condition to take care of in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol will often bring about idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out properly, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both circumstances fairly expediently.

Remember that if the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a car parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel tank sitting at the back of your garden with old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and business properties in County Durham to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or even a few drums in a storage shed, if we are able to get to it, we are able to drain it.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Heighington (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a comprehensive County Durham Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to fill up your automobile in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) to refill the car. They will be able to deal with the standard troubles which can accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even dead batteries due to over-cranking.

A person called us from his residence on a close in Heighington. He explained, "My vehicle (a Chevrolet) is not starting up and is making terrible sounds when I flip the key." He said that he had put petrol in his diesel car but then believed he would remedy the issue by putting additional Diesel on top. We showed up quickly, did the drain and filled him up once more with fresh Diesel. He told us after that he would be absolutely sure to inform people not to fill up over the wrong fuel but to get it drained immediately.
