Incorrect fuel in your car in Felton? You've come to the right place. We are here to help you in this situatiuon and get you running once again with our specialist fuel removal service.

It was before 8 pm on a Saturday and while we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it had not ceased raining! Brian and I were seated there commenting on the sports results, waiting for the 6th telephone call to come in. Before long we got the call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol garage in Felton and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Fiat rental in error. She was somewhat troubled it seemed, crying "I still cannot believe I have wrecked the car! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I completely didn't remember I was running a diesel!" I just instructed her to settle back and not to fret, and that these things unfortunately do happen. She had managed to get the vehicle to a secure spot and, since it was just a short distance away from where we were, we were able to reach the woman rather quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted so she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was living at. Even though we got fairly drenched, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive away satisfied and less concerned. Yet another fuel drain in Northumberland done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Northumberland we are discovering an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly stemming from motorists being unsure of how to to make use of (please note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to each other on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that the product is primarily deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to attend to all types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question an important matter to deal with in a car - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol can bring about idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both cases fairly simply.

Be aware though that as long as the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a vehicle parking spot we can reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir laying at the back of your garden with aged, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and commercial premises in Northumberland to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in a garage, provided that we can reach it, we can empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Felton (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a full Northumberland Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to re-fill your car in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill up your car or truck. They are also able to deal with any of the common issues that might go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.
