It was just before seven pm on a Wednesday and while we were assured a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and I were seated there commenting on the recent footy, prepared for the next job of the day to come in. Before long we had a call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had gone to the BP petrol station in Seghill and put the wrong fuel in her diesel MG lease car. She was very troubled by the sounds of it, stating "I still cannot believe I've wrecked the car! I am just so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that things like this sadly do happen. She had managed to get the car to a protected position and, since it was just a few minutes from our van, we could reach the customer rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she could once again go back to the hotel she was residing at. Despite the fact we got really wet, it was all worth the effort to see her drive off satisfied and a lot less stressed. A job in Northumberland well done in my books!

Our Services:

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue Contamination

In Northumberland we are identifying an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mainly due to people being unsure of the way to work with it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

Phone us if it turns out you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will take care of all types of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious condition to take care of in a car - especially in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your diesel or petrol will bring about idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain than water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both situations fairly quickly.

Bear in mind that if ever the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will probably be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a vehicle parking bay we are able to access the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel reservoir in the back of the garden with old, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many private and industrial premises in Northumberland to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some containers in a garage, provided that we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Seghill (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a full Northumberland Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to refill your vehicle in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump price) to fill up your automobile. They can also take care of any of the most common problems which can go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Seghill - Seghill Petrol in Diesel

The other day a motorist phoned us after his Mazda died in the middle of a street in Seghill. He had accidentally put the wrong fuel in the diesel car and drove to the street before needing to stop. It was actually in the early hours of the morning and our engineer, who resides not far away, got to him in less than a quarter hour. We were able to take out the wrong fuel and put clean diesel once again in the car. "Many kudos to you for your immediate response, particularly at 1 a.m., I really am grateful for it."
