Our Areas of Experience :

Do you or your employees usually misfuel your car? We can resolve any connected issues.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout County Durham we are finding increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partially due to drivers not knowing how to work with it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If you find you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out asap. And obviously do not crank the car - not even to move it off the pump. In the event that you did start the car you may very likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually an important situation to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank can potentially bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of than water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both cases quite swiftly.

Remember though that so long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will likely be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored close to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir at the back of your garden with unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several private and industrial properties in County Durham to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or even numerous containers in a shed, if we can reach it, we can certainly empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Thorpe (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a comprehensive County Durham Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to fill up your automobile in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) to refill your car or truck. They can also take care of any of the typical issues that may go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Removal Thorpe - Thorpe Wrong Fuel Drain

A while back a customer contacted us soon after his Honda cut out along a street in Thorpe. He had mistakenly put petrol in the diesel car and drove so far as the road before being forced to halt. It was early in the day and our technical engineer, who resides not far away, got to him in about a quarter hour. We were able to remove the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel once again into the vehicle. "Sincere thanks to you for your timely response, and in particular at 1 a.m., I truly am grateful for it."

Recent Fuel Drains in Thorpe

Following are feed-back and illustrations of wrong fuel removal we have completed in Thorpe:

We carried out a wrong fuel retrieval exercise on the drive of a spectacular residence in Thorpe not so long ago. "I put the wrong fuel in my diesel car and managed to virtually get home when my car cut out." Our technician went out, regardless that it was rather late at night, and carried out a fuel drain and purge on the Mercedes to everyone's satisfaction.

Wrong Fuel in Car Thorpe - Thorpe Wrong Fuel Assist

A gentleman called us from his Dacia after he had broken down on the congested street. "I mistakenly put unleaded in my diesel car and I ultimately realised it a number of miles along the road!" Thankfully we were able to get out to him in a reasonably short time, taking into consideration the fact it was rush-hour, and he was shortly back on the road.

Vehicle Misfuel Thorpe - Thorpe Fuel Removal

I had appreciated a wonderful day fishing on my off day and was feeling delighted the following day as I set off to assist a young family on holiday in Thorpe. They conked out after putting diesel in their Fiat, and they were around an hour's travel away. I got there at their position and smirked to myself as I heard to the woman chastising her partner for being so stupid. "Precisely how could you even be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I wanted to tell her that this situation takes place constantly in County Durham and that it's nothing at all to be concerned about, and yet he in spite of everything got an ear bashing by his better half. Unfortunate lad. Anyways, I extracted all of the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and gave them some proper fuel. Watching them drive away I mouthed good bye and thought about what her indoors would ask me in the event that I made the very same error... I would personally never live it down!
