It was close to 10 pm on a Tuesday and though we were assured a rainless day, it hadn't given up on pouring! Paul and me were resting there discussing the recent tennis, prepared for the seventh telephone call to come in. Inevitably we received a call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had gone to the Tesco petrol station in Wark and put petrol in her diesel Chevrolet rental by mistake. She was quite affected it seemed, stating "I just can't believe I have ruined the vehicle! I'm so used to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I instructed her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that these things unfortunately happen. She managed to move the car to a safe spot and, since it was just a few miles from where we were, we were able to reach the woman right away. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could get back to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Despite the fact we got very soaked, it was all worth it to watch her drive off contented and less worried. One more misfuel correction in Northumberland well done in my opinion!

Our Services:

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Diesel

In Northumberland we are finding a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly thanks to drivers not knowing how to use it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And absolutely do not start up the car - not even to maneuver it to a parking bay. In the event that you have started the car you will most likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important condition to address in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel will likely cause idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both situations pretty expediently.

Take note that in the event that the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will likely be completely wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage and remove the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank lying at the rear of your premises containing old, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and commercial properties in Northumberland to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous drums in a shed, provided that we can reach it, we can drain it.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Wark (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a full Northumberland Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to re-fill your car any time you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) and refill your car or truck. They are also able to take care of the normal issues that can go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Wark - Wark Wrong Fuel in Car

It was actually early in the day and our fuel drainer, who lives not far away, got to him in less than 20 minutes. We were able to remove the wrong fuel and put clean diesel once again in the vehicle. "Many thanks to you for your immediate response, particularly at 5 a.m., I genuinely appreciate it."
