It was just after eight pm on a Monday and while we were guaranteed a dry day, it hadn't given up on pouring! Brian and I were sitting discussing the rugby, at the ready for the sixth call that day to arrive. Eventually we received the phone call from a woman on a company expedition who had gone to the Tesco petrol garage in Hartlepool and put petrol in a diesel Ford rental car by mistake. The poor lady was quite distressed it seemed, stating "I can not believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I am so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car I had forgot I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to be concerned, plus that these things sadly can happen. She had managed to move the car to a secure space and, because it was no more than a short distance away from the office, we could get to the lady without delay. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was living in. Even though we got really drenched, it was all worth it to watch her drive off relaxed and much less apprehensive. Another fuel drain in Durham done well in my opinion!

This is exactly what we do best.

Adding the incorrect fuel - Adding petrol fuel to a diesel engine can cause all types of issues.

Your engine might start coughing, you might experience stalling, you may see smoke, and you could have problems starting the car. If the situation is reverse where diesel is pumped on the petrol engine, the symptoms are still the same. Whichever of the two kinds of fuels, we can get it fixed for you.

Water Contamination in Engine - Fuel system with water must be drained out completely. Or else the engine with begin to rust and the engine may rev up or jolt or even splutter. This generally happens to boats mostly because of the jerry cans utilized in filling the tanks which were not totally checked for water left. We'll drain it for you, and we might even be able to help with replacement filters.

Diesel Tank with AdBlue - This contamination takes place when you immediately put AdBlue to your tank or you may have accidentally did it. Misinformation could be one of the reasons. People believe it?s a fuel additive, it?s not. AdBlue is a liquid that?s added to reduce the dangerous effect of your engine?s emission in the exhaust. It must be installed in a separate tank for a specific purpose. A lot of drivers are victims of this contamination but don?t be troubled as we know how to deal with it.

Red Diesel Contamination - Generally this occurs due to accident. It can easily occur if you are distracted or tired, from a filling pump or jerry can, and it's no surprise when the AA says as many as 1500 UK garages sell red diesel. Should this happen to you unexpectedly, just contact us and we'll do the work for you.

Trying to drive utilizing old and stale fuel - Fuel degrades with time, something that is common when the vehicle has been sitting, not driven, for a while, or the fuel has been stored for some time. The engine may start and run but there will be problems you'll notice. Emptying out the old fuel is a service we are more than capable of doing.

Wrong Fuel Hartlepool - Hartlepool Wrong Fuel Drain

I appreciated a terrific evening golfing during my holiday and felt cheerful the next day as I set out to aid a young couple who were holidaying in Hartlepool. They broken down after inserting the wrong fuel into their Dacia, and they were roughly an hour's drive away. I turned up at their location and smiled to myself as I heard to the girl telling off her spouse for being so stupid. "Exactly how could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I attempted to explain that this problem occurs frequently in Durham and that it is nothing at all to be anxious about, even so he in spite of everything had an ear bashing. Unlucky boy. At any rate, I removed all the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some correct fuel. Watching them drive off I shouted good bye and considered what my wife would say to me if I did the exact same thing... I'd personally never ever live it down!
