It was close to 6 pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Paul and I were seated there commenting on the rugby rankings, waiting around for the 8th job that day to come in. In due time we got the call from a young lady on a business trip who had gone to the Texaco petrol station in Old Eldon and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel blue Peugeot 306 lease car in error. She was very affected by the sounds of it, stating "I cannot believe that I've wrecked the car! I am so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car that I completely didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to worry, plus that such things sadly happen. She had managed to move the car to a secure area and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes away from where we were, we could find the woman rather quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she could once again go back to the hotel she was lodging at. Even though we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away contented and less apprehensive. One more fuel drain in County Durham well done in my mind!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally a serious situation to address in an automobile - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel tank may well cause idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied correctly, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both circumstances very swiftly.

Remember however that so long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to an automobile parking bay we can access the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.
