It was before 6 pm on a Wednesday and though we were assured a dry and fresh night, it hadn't ceased raining! James and me were resting there talking about the recent golf rankings, ready for the sixth fuel drain for the day to come in. Finally we had a call from a lovely women on a business trip who had gone to the Texaco filling station in Stanley and filled petrol in a diesel Ford hire car in error. She was somewhat agitated it seemed, stating "I cannot believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to fret, and that things like this sadly do happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a secure spot and, seeing that it was just a short distance from us, we could find the woman quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she could get back to the motel she was residing in. Although we got really wet, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive away calm and not so anxious. Yet another fuel drain in Durham done well in my books!

Helping you get back on the road is our number 1 goal.

AdBlue In your Fuel

How to proceed in the event that you?ve poured Adblue into a Diesel tank? Adblue tends to be devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly any time you started the car with Adblue in your diesel tank. Once the engine has been started the Adblue will undoubtedly be squirted into your fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, resulting in disastrous and expensive harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

If perhaps you end up in this scenario don?t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination business. Our technicians possess the practical knowledge and working experience to have you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely a significant condition to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel can easily trigger idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both cases pretty swiftly.

Remember that if the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a vehicle parking spot we are able to access the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

We have been called out to numerous privately owned and industrial properties in Durham to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages.

Petrol in Diesel Stanley - Stanley Vehicle Misfuel

I had a fantastic evening cycling during my day off and felt contented the following working day as I set out to help a young couple who were away in Stanley. They had stopped after filling petrol in their Citroen, and the car was close to an hour away. I emerged at their car and laughed while I heard to the wife telling off her man for turning out to be so daft. "How could you even manage to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to clarify that this occurs constantly in Durham and that it is absolutely nothing to be anxious about, even so he yet still had his ear bent. Poor chap. In any case, I drained the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave them some right fuel. Watching while they drove off I shouted goodbye and thought about what her indoors would do to me if ever I made the same blunder... I would personally never hear the end of it!
