It was around eight pm on a Wednesday and although we were promised a dry evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were seated there talking over the recent tennis rankings, waiting for the next job of the day to come in. Before long we had the phone call from a young lady on a business trip who had arrived at the Esso filling garage in Ornsby Hill and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Citroen rental car by mistake. She was somewhat distressed apparently, telling me "I still can't believe that I have messed up the car! I am just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to worry, also that these things happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a safe space and, as it was only a short distance away from us, we could arrive at the customer rather quickly.

Do you or your drivers often misfuel your vehicle? We can solve any associated problems.
AdBlue In Your Diesel
All over County Durham we are discovering a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent caused by people not understanding how to work with it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to each other on the vehicle.
Now, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Because AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.
Phone us in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to take care of every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant issue to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol will often produce idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both situations fairly simply.
Remember though that if the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and unusable.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}
Waste Fuel Management

We have been called out to many private and business properties in County Durham for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Run out of fuel in Ornsby Hill (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a comprehensive County Durham Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to fill up the car any time you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Ornsby Hill - Ornsby Hill Fuel Removal
I appreciated a perfect evening golfing during my day off and was feeling pleased with myself the following working day as I headed out to aid a young family holidaying in Ornsby Hill. They had pulled over after inserting petrol into their Renault, and were close to an hour's drive away. I emerged at their position and laughed as I listened to the lady telling her spouse off for being so daft. "Precisely how could you possibly be able to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I wanted to explain that this kind of thing happens on a regular basis in County Durham and that it's really nothing to be concerned about, and yet he yet still got his ear bent by his better half. Unlucky lad. In any case, I cleaned up and removed all the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and gave it some right fuel. As they drove down the road I mouthed bon voyage and considered what my wife would say to me if I made the same mistake... I would personally under no circumstances live it down!
