It was after 8 pm on a Wednesday and although we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Ray and me were resting talking about the golf, at the ready for the seventh fuel drain to arrive. In due time we received the phone call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had arrived at the Esso filling garage in Low Hauxley and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Lexus hire car. The unfortunate lady was very distressed by the sounds of it, stating "I simply cannot believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I advised her to relax and not to be concerned, also that these things sadly often happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a secure area and, seeing as it was just a few miles away from where we were, we could find the lady quickly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was living in. Even though we got extremely drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off relaxed and a lot less apprehensive. Another job in Northumberland done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Northumberland we are noticing a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by people not knowing the right way to use it (note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to each other on the automobile.

So, what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you discover youself to be in this predicament do not panic! Contact us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination business. Our experts have the technical competence and experience to have you back on your way quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be an important matter to handle in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in the petrol or diesel can trigger idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied effectively, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both cases fairly easily.

Take note though that whenever the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a car parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

We have been called out to numerous domestic and business premises in Northumberland for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several containers in a shed, if we can access it, we can certainly drain it.

Wrong Fuel in Car Low Hauxley - Low Hauxley Fuel Drain

A man contacted us from his place on a road in Low Hauxley. He pronounced, "My vehicle (a Mitsubishi) is not starting and is making very bad sounds when I flip the key." He said that he put petrol in his diesel vehicle but then thought he would remedy the issue by putting further Diesel on top. We arrived quickly, did the fuel drain and filled it up again with untainted Diesel. He told us he would be sure to tell people not to fill up over the incorrect fuel but to get it drained right away.
