Petrol in Diesel Yarm - Yarm Petrol in Diesel

What a great night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 am on a bright Wednesday and I was off to assist an older sweetheart after she had put the wrong fuel in her diesel Volkswagen in Yarm. I had been told she drove away from the filling station forecourt and was stranded on a country road on route to see her grandchildren. I plugged her location in the Satnav and was on-scene in less than an hour or so. I reached the car and drained the wrong fuel from the car. Whilst I was doing the work she explained, "I have been getting fairly forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the car needing diesel seeing that I'd just purchased it a couple of days back because my old car, which I'd used for over twenty years, finally stopped working". I got the job completed and she gifted me a peppermint and said thank you. What a precious County Durham lady!

Our Fields of Expertise:

Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we offer.

AdBlue Contamination

In County Durham we are identifying increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly thanks to drivers not being aware of the way to use it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to each other on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you discover youself to be in this predicament don?t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination business. Our experts have got the practical knowledge and working experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually an important matter to take care of in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in the diesel or petrol may cause idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both circumstances quite quickly.

Bear in mind though that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to an automobile parking bay we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel tank laying at the back of your garden full of old, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of private and commercial premises in County Durham to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or even a few drums in a garage, providing we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Yarm (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a full County Durham Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to refill the car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump price) and fill your car or truck. They will be able to deal with any of the typical issues which may accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or maybe flat batteries because of over-cranking.

I appreciated a fantastic evening fishing during my afternoon off and was feeling contented the next morning as I headed out to help a new family who were on vacation in Yarm. They'd conked out after adding diesel into their Nissan, and they were roughly half an hour away. I turned up at their position and smiled as I listened to the woman berating her husband for turning out to be so foolish. "How could you actually manage to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I wanted to clarify that this takes place quite frequently in County Durham and that it is absolutely nothing to be anxious about, but he all the same got an ear bashing by his missus. Unfortunate chap. Anyhow, I cleaned up and removed all of the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and filled them up with the right fuel. Watching while they drove down the road I mouthed goodbye and wondered what her indoors would tell me if I made the very same blunder... I would never live it down!


Recent Fuel Drains in Yarm

A few of the usual stories we get from the employees in Yarm:

We not long ago received a phone call from a driver who put the wrong fuel in his MINI in Yarm. He had conked out on the road. "I was pleased at how quick you were in sending an engineer out to help me when I stupidly filled my car with the wrong fuel. Thank you so much". Naturally we arrived on the scene promptly and flushed the engine after flushing all the petrol from the diesel tank. When he arrived the technician said the driver was raging, but was satisfied afterwards.

This was most definitely an unsociable hour to be awake. It was close to sunrise and noone was around. It had been pretty uneventful up to now, and me and John were relaxing perusing a number of old articles. This was an uncommon calm time in County Durham. It was in fact that relaxing that the instant the phone finally rang it made me start! The customer told me: "I've only just concluded my overnight shift and incredibly poured petrol in a diesel Renault by mistake". We got him to tell us where the vehicle was and we left, ending up in Yarm only half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was taken out from the vehicle and he thanked us for coming so promptly. As we were going back to the office we saw two young women on the side of the street who appeared to have a flat tyre. Accordingly we pulled over to change it, much to their delight.

I'd had a perfect evening cycling during the weekend and was feeling delighted with myself the following working day as I set out to assist a young couple on holiday in Yarm. They'd stopped after putting diesel into their Dacia, and the car was close to an hour away. I emerged at their position and smiled while I listened to the gal telling her partner off for being so stupid. "Precisely how could you possibly be able to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I wanted to explain that this comes to pass continuously in County Durham and that it's nothing at all to fret about, and yet he in spite of everything got an ear bashing. Poor lad. Anyhow, I drained out all of the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the right fuel. While watching them drive down the road I mouthed farewell and pondered on what her indoors would do to me if I made the same mistake... I would under no circumstances hear the end of it!
