It was just before 5 pm on a Thursday and while we were promised a dry and fresh night, it had not stopped raining! Mark and I were resting discussing the weekend's football rankings, ready for the sixth call that day to come in. Inevitably we had a call from a woman on a business trip who had pulled into the Texaco filling station in Berwick-upon-Tweed and filled petrol in her diesel Honda rental car in error. The unfortunate lady was rather distressed it seemed, telling me "I can't believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm so used to filling up my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I just told her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and that these things sadly do happen. She had managed to move the vehicle to a safe space and, seeing that it was only a few miles off from the office, we were able to reach her fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to get back to the motel she was living in. Even though we got fairly wet, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive home relaxed and not so worried. A fuel drain in Northumberland well done in my opinion!

This is what exactly we do best.
AdBlue In Your Diesel
All over Northumberland we are encountering a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly a result of drivers being unsure of the right way to use it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.
So, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Since AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.
If in case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And definitely be careful not to crank the motor - not even to move it into a parking place. In cases where you did start the vehicle you would most likely have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed out.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a serious situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in diesel or petrol may well trigger idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both situations pretty easily.
Bear in mind however that so long as the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and useless.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If you've got the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated close to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to access the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}
Waste Fuel Management
Got an old fuel container sitting at the back of your garden full of unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and business properties in Northumberland for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a storage shed, providing we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it.
Run Out of Fuel Assistance
Run out of fuel in Berwick-upon-Tweed (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a complete Northumberland Out of Fuel Service. We can come to fill up your automobile in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill up the car. They will be able to handle the standard problems that could accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Tales from our Berwick-upon-Tweed staff:
We did a wrong fuel retrieval job near a lovely property in Berwick-upon-Tweed a few weeks ago. "I put unleaded in my diesel car and managed to nearly get home when my car quit." Our technician went out, even though it was fairly late at night, and carried out a thorough fuel drain and purge on the Smart to everyone's satisfaction.

This was most definitely the night shift. It was close to dawn and noone was stirring. It was quite uneventful up to now, and John and I were relaxing looking through several old magazines. That was an unusual tranquil hour in Northumberland. It was in fact so calm that the moment my mobile rang I jumped with surprise! The person explained: "I have only just finished my evening shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in my diesel Hyundai in error". We told him to tell us just where the vehicle was and we left, arriving in Berwick-upon-Tweed no more than an hour later. The contaminated fuel was cleared from the engine. He said thanks a lot for getting there so rapidly. While we were returning to the depot we saw two girls at the edge of the street who appeared to have a puncture. Obviously we stopped to help them change it, much to their delight.

It was actually in the early hours of the day and our engineer, who stays not far away, reached him in less than 15 minutes. We were able to remove the wrong fuel and put fresh diesel back in to the car. "Thank you for your prompt response, especially at 4 a.m., I appreciate it."
