Petrol in Diesel Thorpe - Thorpe Fuel Drain

Ahhh, that was a good night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 on a gloomy Bank Holiday Monday and I was off to help an old lovely lady after she put contaminated fuel in her diesel BMW in Thorpe. She informed us that she drove away from the petrol station and was stranded in a country road along the way to visit her godchildren. I punched the location into the TomTom and was with her in less than an hour or so. I got to the vehicle and removed the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. As I was doing it she told me, "I have been getting fairly absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle using diesel since I'd only just acquired it a short while ago after my old one, which I had used for about 30 years, finally stopped working". I completed the job and she offered me a toffee and said thanks. What a pleasant County Durham lady!

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout County Durham we have seen more and more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to some extent due to motorists not being aware of the way to work with it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to one another on the car.

Well, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it at once. And obviously be careful not to start the motor - not even to shift it away from the pump. In the event that you have started the vehicle you would probably need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious issue to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel may lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not addressed properly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both circumstances fairly swiftly.

You should know that any time the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will probably be wholly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to an automobile parking spot we should be able to reach the storage and drain out the fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got a fuel tank placed at the back of the garden containing unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and industrial properties in County Durham to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in a garage, provided that we can reach it, we could certainly empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Thorpe (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a complete County Durham Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to re-fill your car in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) to fill up the car. They will take care of any of the normal troubles which can go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Recent Fuel Drains in Thorpe

Stories from our own Thorpe technicians:

I am not ever very enthusiastic about running weekends, and a while back was the same. I had only just left home following a magnificent Sunday roast made by the better half, and I was off to sort out a fellow after he put the incorrect fuel in his Hyundai. He was only in Thorpe and so I arrived with him quickly. Just as I pulled up at the rear of the car and got out he told me "Praise the Lord! I had my attention on other considerations and failed to realise I've put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Have I created problems simply by driving it?" I determined there shouldn't be problems and that I would get the fuel drained immediately. Naturally I got the contaminated fuel drained from the car and filled up with the suitable fuel, and then one more happy client had the ability to carry on with his travelling with no hassle. The gentleman could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and this is exactly what tends to make operating on weekends in County Durham that tiny bit less painful to me!

Fuel Removal Thorpe - Thorpe Wrong Fuel

A gentleman who had put the wrong fuel in his diesel Nissan phoned us for assistance at the Tesco filling station in Thorpe. He thought it would be good to fill up before continuing on to the local recreation park but had put the wrong fuel in his car. "I put petrol as opposed to diesel which wasn't a wonderful beginning to our vacation." It was really no trouble whatsoever for our fuel drainer to go out and carry out the fuel drain. We hope the family enjoyed their vacation.

Fuel Drain Thorpe - Thorpe Fuel Rescue

A man had broken down near a road in Thorpe. His Chevrolet engine had ceased functioning and he had no idea what was awry until he noticed he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle. He rang us to get a fuel drain and that's when he said to us: "I cannot believe that I didn't realise that I had put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He stated that he had got virtually no rest the night before and that must have been precisely why.
