It was around 9 pm on a Tuesday and though we were assured a rainless night, it had not stopped raining! Ryan and I were seated there going over the recent footy rankings, ready for the next telephone call to come in. Before long we received the phone call from a lady on a business trip who had arrived at the Tesco petrol garage in Strothers Dale and put petrol in a diesel Jaguar rental car in error. The unfortunate lady was quite irritated it seemed, stating "I can not believe that I've wrecked the car! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I had did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to fret, also that these things unfortunately often happen. She managed to get the car into a secure position and, since it was no more than a few minutes off from our van, we were able to arrive at the lady rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was living in.

Do you or your drivers frequently misfuel your car? We can fix any connected problems.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Northumberland we have identified progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a result of motorists being unsure of how to to make use of (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is predominantly deionised water, it is like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can correct all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question an important issue to address in an automobile - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in fuel tank will result in idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out than water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both cases rather expediently.

Be aware however that as long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will likely be totally water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to an automobile parking spot we can gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and business premises in Northumberland for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.

Wrong Fuel Drain Strothers Dale - Strothers Dale Vehicle Misfuel

I had a terrific evening fishing on my holiday and felt contented the next morning as I headed out to help a new family on vacation in Strothers Dale. They'd pulled over after adding the wrong fuel in their Fiat, and the car was approximately an hour away. I emerged at their car and smiled to myself while I listened to the lady telling off her husband for actually being so stupid. "Precisely how could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I attempted to clarify that this kind of thing happens on a regular basis in Northumberland and that it's nothing to stress about, and yet he in spite of everything had his ear bent by his wife. Unfortunate guy. Anyway, I removed the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some proper fuel. While watching them drive away I waved goodbye and thought about what her indoors would say to me if perhaps I did the exact same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
