It was after five pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ray and me were seated commenting on the weekend's tennis results, ready for the 8th telephone call for the day to arrive. Before long we got the phone call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol garage in Bingfield and put petrol in her diesel Smart hire car by mistake. She was pretty agitated apparently, telling me "I simply can't believe I've destroyed the car! I am so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car I completely forgot that I was running a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to fret, and that such things regrettably happen. She had managed to relocate the car into a protected space and, seeing as it was just a few miles from where we were, we could get to the woman rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was drained and she was able to go home to the hotel she was staying in. Despite the fact we got really soaked, it was all worth it to see her drive away calm and not so concerned. A fuel drain in Northumberland done well in my opinion!

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Northumberland we have encountered a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a degree caused by drivers being unsure of how to work with it (important: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Now, what is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Because AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call in the event that you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to fix all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a significant matter to deal with in an automobile - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in diesel or petrol may lead to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of properly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove than water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both situations fairly quickly.

You should know however that if ever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one is going to be wholly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a car parking bay we will be able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container at the back of your garden full of aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and business premises in Northumberland to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or even a few containers in a storage shed, as long as we can access it, we can empty it.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Bingfield (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a comprehensive Northumberland Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to fill up your vehicle if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at cost) and fill your car. They can also handle the typical troubles which might come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Bingfield - Bingfield Fuel Removal

Last week a gentleman contacted us right after his SEAT stopped working along a street in Bingfield. He had inadvertently put unleaded in his diesel vehicle and was only able to drive so far as the street before being forced to stop. It was still early in the day and our technical engineer, who resides nearby, reached him in about 15 minutes. We managed to drain the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel back in the car. "Thank you for your timely response, especially at 3 a.m., I truly appreciate it."
