It was before 8 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless day, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Mark and me were sitting talking about the recent sports, at the ready for the seventh telephone call to come in. Inevitably we got a phone call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had arrived at the Texaco petrol garage in South Shields and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Citroen hire car in error. The poor thing was very irritated by the sounds of it, saying "I can't believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle I completely forgot I was driving a diesel!" We told her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that these things happen. She managed to move the car into a secure position and, as it was only a few miles from our van, we were able to get to her right away. The contaminated fuel was drained and she was able to go home to the motel she was staying at. Even though we got fairly soaked, it was all worth the effort to see her drive away satisfied and much less apprehensive. Yet another job in Tyne and Wear well done in my books!

AdBlue Contamination

In Tyne and Wear we are noticing a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partially caused by people not being aware of how to to make use of (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to each other on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Whenever you discover youself to be in this scenario do not panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our technicians have got the technical know-how and experience to get you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is certainly a serious matter to handle in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank can lead to idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of fully, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both circumstances pretty simply.

Bear in mind however that any time the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one is going to be wholly wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to an automobile parking spot we should be able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank placed in the back of your premises with aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and business properties in Tyne and Wear for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even numerous drums in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to access it, we can drain it for you.

Out of fuel in South Shields (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete Tyne and Wear Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to re-fill your automobile if you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) and refill your automobile. They will handle the most common problems that may come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.
