It was close to six pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry evening, it had not ceased pouring! Mark and I were relaxing there talking over the weekend's golf, at the ready for the next telephone call for the day to come in. Eventually we got the call from a girl on a company trip who had arrived at the Shell petrol garage in Page Bank and put petrol in her diesel Mercedes rental in error. The poor thing was very agitated by the sounds of it, saying "I can't believe that I've messed up the car! I'm so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" We asked her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that things like this sadly often happen. She was able to relocate the car to a secure area and, as it was no more than a few minutes away from us, we could get to the woman fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could go home to the Travelodge she was living in. Despite the fact that we got very soaked, it was all worth it to see her drive off relaxed and not so stressed. Yet another job in County Durham well done in my opinion!

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout County Durham we are identifying more and more cases of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mostly as a result of motorists not being totally sure the way to to make use of (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to one another on the vehicle.

So, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Since the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out right away. And absolutely never crank the motor - not even to move it from the pump. In cases where you did start the car you would in all probability need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant situation to deal with in a vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in diesel or petrol will likely lead to idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed effectively, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both circumstances fairly expediently.

Keep in mind however that any time the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will be totally wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to access the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel container laying at the back of your garden containing unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and commercial premises in County Durham to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a storage shed, provided that we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Page Bank (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a comprehensive County Durham Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill your vehicle if you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) to fill your car. They will be able to handle any of the normal troubles that may go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Page Bank - Page Bank Wrong Fuel

A gentleman called us from Page Bank to say he foolishly piped petrol in to his diesel Fiat. "I can't believe it! How could I put petrol in my beautiful diesel car!" It took our engineer about 50 minutes to completely drain the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. He thoroughly flushed the fuel lines, filter and pumps and put clean fuel in the vehicle. The customer was completely satisfied and it hadn't cost him dealer rates to get the job properly performed.
