It was close to ten pm on a Saturday and though we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not given up on raining! Brian and me were resting talking about the weekend's golf rankings, ready for the 6th job that day to arrive. Inevitably we got the phone call from a woman on a company expedition who had pulled into the BP filling station in Mainsforth and filled petrol in her diesel Suzuki hire car in error. The poor thing was very affected it seemed, telling me "I still can't believe I have ruined the car! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol car that I had did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to calm down and not to be concerned, plus that such things often happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a safe position and, as it was no more than a few minutes away from us, we could find the lady right away. The bad fuel was extracted so she could get back to the Travelodge she was living in. Even though we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive home relaxed and a lot less anxious. Yet another job in County Durham done well in my opinion!

AdBlue Contamination

In County Durham we have seen more and more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a degree a result of drivers not being aware of the right way to use it (take note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to each other on the car.

So, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Since AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call if it turns out you are going through AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to attend to all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a significant issue to handle in an automobile - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank will likely produce idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed correctly, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both situations fairly expediently.

Keep in mind however that if the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will be completely water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to parking bay we can access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir laying in the rear of your garden with out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and business premises in County Durham to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in a garage, assuming that we are able to reach it, we can drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Mainsforth (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a comprehensive County Durham Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to fill up the car in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump prices) and fill your vehicle. They will be able to take care of any of the common problems that might go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
