It was around seven pm on a Monday and while we were assured a dry and fresh night, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and I were seated there discussing the recent tennis results, ready for the sixth job that day to come in. In due time we received the call from a young lady on a business excursion who had arrived at the Esso filling station in Dunston and filled petrol in her diesel Jaguar rental. She was somewhat irritated by the sounds of it, telling me "I cannot believe that I have destroyed the car! I'm so used to putting petrol in my petrol car I totally didn't remember I was running a diesel!" We asked her to calm down and not to fret, plus that these things can happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a safe area and, since it was only a short distance from where we were, we could get to the lady right away. The incorrect fuel was removed and she could get back to the motel she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got pretty drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive home satisfied and much less anxious. Another fuel drain in Tyne and Wear done well in my opinion!

Our Areas of Competence :

This is what we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Tyne and Wear we are noticing an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to some extent stemming from motorists not understanding the right way to to make use of (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Call us if it turns out you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can attend to all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant condition to address in a car - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel may produce idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both situations fairly easily.

Take note however that as long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel tank laying at the rear of your premises with unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many domestic and business premises in Tyne and Wear to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even several drums in a shed, assuming that we are able to access it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Dunston (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a comprehensive Tyne and Wear Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to refill your vehicle in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) and refill your car. They will take care of any of the usual troubles which may go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Dunston - Dunston Petrol in Diesel

A person contacted us from his place on a street in Dunston. He exclaimed, "My vehicle (a Audi) is not running and is producing very bad sounds when I flip the ignition." He confessed that he had put unleaded in his diesel car but then imagined he would solve the issue by putting further Diesel on top. We got there quickly, did the drain and filled it up again with clean Diesel. He said that he'd be sure to educate people not to fill up in addition to the incorrect fuel but to have it drained promptly.
