Our Areas of Competency :

We are willing to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around County Durham we are identifying a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of people being unsure of how to work with it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to each other on the vehicle.

So, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Since the product is primarily deionised water, it is actually just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out at once. And absolutely do not start up the vehicle - not even to shift it to a parking place. Assuming you have started the vehicle you would probably have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a significant issue to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel will bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both circumstances very expediently.

Keep in mind however that whenever the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will probably be completely wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir placed in the back of the garden with unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of private and commercial properties in County Durham for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in an outbuilding, providing we are able to get to it, we can certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Cowshill (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a comprehensive County Durham Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to re-fill the car in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill up your car. They will take care of the typical problems which could go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

The customer was happy and it hadn't cost him dealer prices to get the job professionally completed.
