Below are the top services we provide to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around County Durham we are identifying an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partly a result of motorists not being totally sure the right way to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to each other on the car.

Well, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that the product is primarily deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

If you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it at once. And of course do not switch on the vehicle - not even to relocate it into a parking area. In the event that you did start the vehicle you may likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant condition to handle in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol will likely cause idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both situations very easily.

Take note that if ever the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a car or truck parking bay we can reach the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir sitting in the back of the garden with aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and industrial properties in County Durham to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous containers in a storage shed, assuming that we can reach it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Beaumont Hill (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a comprehensive County Durham Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to refill the car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill up the car. They can also handle the common problems which might go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Beaumont Hill - Beaumont Hill Wrong Fuel Doctor

I had a fantastic day fishing during my off day and felt delighted the next day as I set out to assist a young family on holiday in Beaumont Hill. They broken down after putting petrol into their Kia, and the car was roughly an hour away. I turned up at their position and smiled as I listened to the lady telling her man off for being so confused. "Just how could you possibly be able to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I attempted to explain that this happens quite frequently in County Durham and that it's nothing at all to get worried about, and yet he still got his ear bent. Unfortunate chap. Anyway, I removed all the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and gave it some proper fuel. While they drove off I shouted good bye and considered what my missus would say to me if I did the same thing... I would personally never ever live it down!
