It was around six pm on a Friday and even though we were promised a dry and fresh day, it had not ceased raining! Dan and I were seated talking over the recent footy, at the ready for the 8th fuel drain to arrive. Finally we got a call from a girl on a company excursion who had gone to the Tesco filling station in Follingsby and filled petrol in her diesel Mazda hire car. She was quite irritated apparently, saying "I cannot believe I've destroyed the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I had forgot I was driving a diesel!" We instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that these things do happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a secure position and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes away from the office, we could arrive at the woman almost instantly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could return to the motel she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth it to see her drive off relaxed and not so apprehensive. A job in Tyne and Wear well done in my mind!

Wrong Fuel Assist Follingsby - Follingsby Fuel Rescue
What a good night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 on a warm Wednesday and I was off to help an older lady after she put the wrong fuel in her diesel Chevrolet in Follingsby. I'd been advised she drove away from the filling station forecourt and was broken down along a backwater lane on the way to see her family. I got the location punched into the TomTom and got there in less than 60 minutes. I arrived at the location and extracted the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. While I was doing the work she told me, "I have been becoming fairly forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the car working with diesel as I'd only just bought it several days back when my previous car, which I used for in excess of twenty years, inevitably broke down". I got the job completed and she presented me a peppermint and said thank you. Such a pleasant Tyne and Wear woman!

AdBlue In your Fuel
Throughout Tyne and Wear we are discovering increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partially as a result of motorists not understanding how to work with it (be aware: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.
Well, what is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As the product is mainly deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.
If you discover youself to be in this situation do not panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our engineers have the specialised expertise and experience to have you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious condition to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel will likely contribute to idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out than water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both cases fairly simply.
Keep in mind though that if the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will likely be wholly wet and useless.
Boat Fuel Drains
If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to an automobile parking spot we should be able to access the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}
Removal of Waste Fuel
Got an old fuel reservoir at the rear of your premises with unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and business properties in Tyne and Wear to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in a storage shed, as long as we can get to it, we can empty it.
Re-Fueling Service
Run out of fuel in Follingsby (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a comprehensive Tyne and Wear Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill your car in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill your automobile. They are also able to deal with any of the typical troubles which could go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.
Petrol in Diesel Follingsby - Follingsby Fuel Drain
I'd had a perfect afternoon golfing on my holiday and was feeling satisfied with myself the next morning as I set off to assist a young couple holidaying in Follingsby. They'd stopped after filling the wrong fuel into their Skoda, and were about an hour's travel away. I arrived at their car and laughed as I heard to the gal telling her hubby off for actually being so daft. "How could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I wanted to clarify that this happens on a regular basis in Tyne and Wear and that it's absolutely nothing to stress about, but he all the same had an earful by his better half. Unfortunate boy. In any case, I drained out all of the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave them some correct fuel. While watching them drive down the road I shouted farewell and thought about what her indoors would ask me if I did the exact same thing... I'd personally never hear the end of it!
