It was about ten pm on a Friday and although we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it had not stopped pouring! Mark and I were sitting commenting on the weekend's golf rankings, waiting for the 6th call for the day to arrive. In due time we received a phone call from a young lady on a business excursion who had arrived at the Texaco filling garage in Springwell and put the wrong fuel in a diesel MINI lease car. The poor lady was pretty troubled apparently, telling me "I still cannot believe I've destroyed the car! I'm just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to worry, and that such things can happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a protected position and, because it was no more than a few minutes away from the office, we could find the woman fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted and she could get back to the motel she was residing in. Despite the fact we got fairly drenched, it was all worth the time seeing her drive home contented and much less anxious. One more job in Tyne and Wear done well in my books!

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Tyne and Wear we have found increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partially stemming from drivers not being totally sure the right way to use it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Well, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as the product is primarily deionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you end up in this predicament don?t fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our engineers possess the specialised know-how and working experience to have you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually a significant situation to handle in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel is going to produce idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not addressed effectively, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both circumstances quite easily.

Be aware that so long as the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will probably be wholly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated near to a car or truck parking spot we can gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

We have been called out to quite a few private and commercial premises in Tyne and Wear to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages.
