It was about 5 pm on a Tuesday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Dan and I were relaxing commenting on the weekend's tennis rankings, at the ready for the sixth job for the day to come in. Eventually we got a call from a lady on a company expedition who had arrived at the Texaco petrol station in Stanton and filled petrol in a diesel MINI hire car in error. She was rather troubled it seemed, telling me "I still cannot believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot I was using a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that such things sadly can happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a safe spot and, as it was no more than a few miles off from our van, we were able to find the customer rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was drained so she was able to return to the Travelodge she was residing at. Although we got very wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive away contented and not so stressed. Yet another misfuel correction in Northumberland well done in my mind!

Do you or your employees usually misfuel your vehicle? We can fix any related issues.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Northumberland we have noticed more and more instances of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partly stemming from people not understanding the right way to to make use of (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to each other on the car.

Well, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? As the product is mainly deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

If you end up in this scenario don?t panic! Call us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination business. Our experts have the technical competence and experience to get you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a serious condition to take care of in an automobile - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water in your fuel is going to result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain than water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both situations fairly expediently.

Take note however that if ever the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will probably be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to parking spot we can access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Vehicle Misfuel Stanton - Stanton Wrong Fuel Drain

A guy had stopped just off a road in Stanton. His Smart motor had stopped running and he had no idea what was faulty right up until he realised he had put unleaded in his diesel vehicle. He called us to get a fuel drain and that is when he said to us: "I cannot believe that I didn't know that I had put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had got absolutely no rest the night before and that could have been the reason why.
