Our fuel drainer was called out to a service station in Shillmoor when a elderly lady misfueled her Porsche by putting unleaded in her diesel car. She was in an aggrevated and confused mentality but we soon eased her anxiety by telling her that we would be with her in an hour to do the drain and that the vehicle would shortly be functioning and she'd be away again. As we'd stated she was exactly that, but also insisted on telling us: "Your firm is incredibly service oriented, I'm very happy my vehicle is fine," and that she'd highly recommend us to anybody.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Northumberland we are discovering more and more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly caused by motorists not being totally sure the right way to use it (note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to one another on the car.

Now, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since the product is predominantly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And obviously never start the vehicle - not even to move it off the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you may most likely have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually an important condition to address in a car - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your diesel or petrol will likely cause idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both cases very expediently.

You should know however that if ever the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated near to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to reach the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank lying at the back of your garden full of out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several private and industrial properties in Northumberland to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in an outbuilding, if we are able to reach it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Shillmoor (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a complete Northumberland Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill your vehicle if you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) and refill your automobile. They will be able to take care of any of the typical issues that can accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Shillmoor - Shillmoor Wrong Fuel Doctor

A person phoned us from Shillmoor saying he stupidly piped unleaded in his diesel Volvo. "I can't believe it! How could I put unleaded in my beautiful diesel car!" It took our fuel drainer approximately fifty minutes to fully drain the wrong fuel out of the car. He completely purged the fuel lines, filter and pumps and after that put fresh fuel in the car. The customer was thrilled and it didn't cost him dealership rates to have the task properly performed.
