It was just before seven pm on a Monday and while we were guaranteed a dry evening, it had not stopped raining! Paul and me were sitting there talking about the weekend's rugby results, ready for the seventh job of the day to arrive. Inevitably we had a call from a girl on a company expedition who had gone to the BP filling station in Todhills and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Hyundai lease car in error. The unfortunate thing was very affected by the sounds of it, telling me "I still can't believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I totally didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I told her to calm down and not to worry, and also that these things sadly happen. She was able to relocate the car into a protected space and, seeing as it was only a few miles from the office, we could get to her rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was residing at. Although we got really drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive off satisfied and much less apprehensive. One more fuel drain in County Durham done well in my books!

Listed here are our top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to handle it in the event that you may have poured Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a liquid made out of a mixture of deionized water (67.5%) and urea (32.5%).It can be harmful to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly in cases where you started the car with Adblue in the fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the Adblue is going to be pushed into the fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, bringing about disastrous and costly damage to your automobile's fuel system.

Give us a call if it turns out you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to correct all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant matter to take care of in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in fuel can certainly result in idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of than water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can handle both cases quite expediently.

Keep in mind however that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a vehicle parking spot we are able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container laying at the rear of the garden with old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial premises in County Durham for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a shed, provided that we are able to access it, we are able to empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Todhills (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a full County Durham Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to refill your car in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) to refill the car. They will take care of the common troubles that could go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Todhills - Todhills Wrong Fuel Drain

I had a wonderful evening fishing during my off day and felt contented with myself the following morning as I set out to aid a new family holidaying in Todhills. They'd broken down after filling petrol into their Vauxhall, and the car was close to half an hour's travel away. I showed up at their position and laughed as I listened to the gal telling her husband off for actually being so silly. "Precisely how could you possibly find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I attempted to explain that this happens everyday in County Durham and that it is nothing to be anxious about, and yet he all the same got an ear bashing by his missus. Unfortunate boy. In any case, I drained out all of the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the right fuel. Watching them drive down the road I waved good bye and considered what her indoors would say to me if perhaps I did the same thing... I'd personally never hear the end of it!
