It was after ten pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless day, it hadn't ceased raining! Dan and me were sitting going over the recent football rankings, prepared for the sixth job of the day to come in. Before long we had a call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had arrived at the Esso petrol garage in North Sunderland and put petrol in a diesel Kia hire car by mistake. She was rather distressed it seemed, stating "I still cannot believe that I've destroyed the car! I am so used to putting petrol in my petrol car I had didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" We told her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that things like this regrettably can happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a secure position and, since it was no more than a few miles from where we were, we could reach her fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could once again go back to the hotel she was living at. Despite the fact that we got extremely soaked, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive home contented and much less worried. Yet another job in Northumberland done well in my books!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Northumberland we have discovered more and more instances of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is in part a result of motorists being unsure of how to work with it (be aware: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what's the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because the product is mostly deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you get in this position don?t panic! Call us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination service. Our engineers possess the technical expertise and working experience to get you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a significant situation to deal with in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel may lead to idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both cases pretty swiftly.

Remember however that whenever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured close to a car or truck parking bay we can gain access to the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir sitting at the back of the garden containing unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial premises in Northumberland to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous drums in an outbuilding, if we are able to reach it, we are able to drain it.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in North Sunderland (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a complete Northumberland Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to refill your vehicle any time you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) to fill up the car. They are also able to take care of any of the standard problems which may come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries due to over-cranking.
