It was before seven pm on a Monday and even though we were promised a dry evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and I were seated discussing the recent footy rankings, waiting around for the next fuel drain for the day to come in. In due time we got a phone call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had gone to the BP filling garage in Hexham and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Ford hire car in error. She was quite troubled by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply can't believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I had did not remember that I was using a diesel!" I told her to take it easy and not to worry, also that things like this happen. She managed to get the car into a safe spot and, as it was only a short distance off from our van, we could arrive at the woman swiftly. The bad fuel was removed and she could get back to the Travelodge she was residing at. Despite the fact that we got really drenched, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive home calm and less anxious. Another job in Northumberland done well in my opinion!

Services Our Company Offers:

Listed here are the top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

What you should do in the event that you have put Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a liquid made from a mixture of urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%).It tends to be damaging to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly any time you have had the engine running with Adblue in your diesel tank. The moment the engine has been started the Adblue will be squirted into your fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, resulting in serious and costly damage to your car's fuel system.

If you find you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained right away. And obviously be careful not to start up the vehicle - not even to move it off the pump. In cases where you have started the car you would very likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a serious issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water in your fuel will result in idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both cases pretty expediently.

Bear in mind however that so long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will probably be completely wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

We have been called out to many domestic and business premises in Northumberland to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages.

Fuel Rescue Hexham - Hexham Vehicle Misfuel

Yesterday a young man phoned us when his Toyota broke down in the middle of a street in Hexham. He had accidentally put the incorrect fuel in the diesel motor and got as far as the road before being forced to stop. It was yet early in the day and our technician, who resides locally, reached him in approximately ten minutes. We were able to drain the wrong fuel and put fresh diesel once again into the car. "Many kudos to you for your prompt response, particularly at 5 a.m., I truly am grateful for it."
