It was just after ten pm on a Friday and though we were promised a dry day, it hadn't ceased raining! Dan and me were relaxing commenting on the recent football, prepared for the seventh job to arrive. In due time we had a phone call from a girl on a company trip who had arrived at the BP petrol garage in Spennymoor and put petrol in her diesel Skoda hire car. She was somewhat affected by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply cannot believe I've ruined the car! I am so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to worry, plus that things like this unfortunately happen. She was able to get the car to a safe position and, because it was no more than a few miles from where we were, we were able to find her rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was drained so she was able to go home to the hotel she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got fairly soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off relaxed and a lot less stressed. Another job in County Durham done well in my books!

Offered Services:

Below are our top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over County Durham we are finding an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree as a consequence of drivers not knowing the way to use it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to each other on the vehicle.

So, what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Since AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us if you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can handle different types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally an important situation to address in a car - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your petrol or diesel will likely contribute to idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with fully, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both situations quite quickly.

Take note however that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a car parking spot we can reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We've done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel container lying at the back of the garden with out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and business properties in County Durham for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a shed, assuming that we can get to it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Spennymoor (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a comprehensive County Durham Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to fill up the car in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump price) and fill your car or truck. They can also handle the normal issues that might come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, as well as flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Spennymoor - Spennymoor Wrong Fuel Assist

I had enjoyed a fantastic afternoon hiking during my afternoon off and felt delighted the next day as I set out to aid a young family holidaying in Spennymoor. They pulled over after adding the wrong fuel into their Mercedes, and were around an hour away. I emerged at their car and laughed to myself while I heard to the gal chastising her spouse for actually being so daft. "Precisely how could you even find a way to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I wanted to tell her that this occurs continuously in County Durham and that it's really nothing at all to be concerned about, nevertheless he all the same had his ear bent by his wife. Unfortunate chap. In any case, I removed all of the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and filled them up with the proper fuel. Watching them drive away I mouthed so long and pondered on what my wife would ask me in the event that I made the very same blunder... I'd personally never ever live it down!
