It was about 7 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were assured a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped pouring! James and me were seated there going over the recent tennis rankings, at the ready for the sixth telephone call of the day to come in. Before long we received a phone call from a girl on a business trip who had gone to the Esso filling station in Houghton-Le-Spring and filled petrol in a diesel SEAT lease car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was quite irritated apparently, crying "I simply cannot believe that I have wrecked the car! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I completely forgot that I was using a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to fret, and that these things sadly often happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a secure area and, seeing as it was only a short distance away from the office, we were able to reach the lady almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she was able to get back to the hotel she was living in. Despite the fact that we got extremely wet, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive off relaxed and not so apprehensive. A misfuel correction in Tyne and Wear done well in my mind!

Our Areas of Experience :

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

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Tyne and Wear we are finding more and more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is in part stemming from drivers not being aware of the way to to make use of (be aware: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to each other on the car.

Well, what is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As the product is primarily deionised water, it is just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained right away. And certainly do not start the vehicle - not even to maneuver it to a parking area. If you have started the car you may very likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question an important matter to handle in a car - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel can potentially lead to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both circumstances quite expediently.

You should know though that as long as the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will probably be completely wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir lying in the back of your garden containing out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of private and industrial premises in Tyne and Wear to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a few containers in a garage, if we can reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.

We can easily get out to refill your car any time you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home.
