Water in diesel tank in Darlington

Short answer

Water sinks below the diesel and is drawn in first. It has no lubricity, so the high-pressure pump wears as if running dry.

Anywhere in Darlington, a unit attends the vehicle where it stands. Typically 1-2 hours on site, and the price is agreed with you on the phone first.

Do not start the engine, and do not drive to a garage. Moving the vehicle is what turns a drain into a repair.

Around Darlington the common thread is an unfamiliar vehicle: a hire car, a van, a first tank after changing cars. What changes the bill is not how much went in, but whether the engine has run since.

What has happened so far?

Pick the one that fits. It is the only question that changes the answer.
