It was around 8 pm on a Saturday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Paul and I were sitting there talking over the rugby rankings, at the ready for the 6th call to arrive. Eventually we had the call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the Shell filling station in Wolsingham and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Honda lease car by mistake. The poor lady was pretty affected it seemed, crying "I cannot believe I've wrecked the car! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to worry, plus that these things unfortunately often happen. She had managed to move the car to a safe spot and, since it was no more than a few minutes from where we were, we could arrive at her quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted and she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Even though we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive off contented and less worried. Another misfuel correction in Durham well done in my mind!

AdBlue Contamination

What to do in the event that you?ve poured Adblue into your Diesel tank? It can be disastrous to your car's fuel system, particularly if you have had the engine running with Adblue in the diesel fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been switched on the Adblue is going to be injected into the fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, causing catastrophic and expensive problems to your automobile's fuel system.

If you find yourself in this situation don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination business. Our engineers have the technical know-how and working experience to have you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be an important issue to handle in a car - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in petrol or diesel may result in idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain in comparison with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both situations quite easily.

Bear in mind that as long as the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will be completely wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a vehicle parking spot we can access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir laying at the rear of your premises containing unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and industrial properties in Durham to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Wolsingham (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a comprehensive Durham Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to refill the car if you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) and fill up your car. They will fix any of the usual problems that may accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Wolsingham - Wolsingham Wrong Fuel in Car

I had appreciated a perfect day golfing during my off day and was feeling cheerful the following day as I was en route to aid a new couple vacationing in Wolsingham. They'd stopped after putting the wrong fuel into their Fiat, and were approximately an hour's travel away. I emerged at their position and smirked while I heard to the woman chastising her partner for actually being so confused. "Exactly how could you possibly find a way to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I attempted to explain that this happens constantly in Durham and that it is nothing to get worried about, but he all the same had his ear bent by his missus. Unfortunate chap. Anyways, I removed the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled it up with the proper fuel. While watching them drive off I shouted good bye and thought about what her indoors would do to me if I made the very same blunder... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
