Our Areas of Expertise:

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we give.

AdBlue Contamination

All around County Durham we have discovered a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree a result of motorists being unsure of the way to work with it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to each other on the car.

So, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? As AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

Give us a call if you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will attend to all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually a serious situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel is going to produce idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not remedied effectively, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain in comparison with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both circumstances rather simply.

You should know however that if ever the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked near to a vehicle parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank placed at the rear of the garden containing unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and industrial properties in County Durham for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a storage shed, assuming that we can access it, we can drain it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Fulthorpe (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a complete County Durham Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to re-fill your car in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) to fill your car. They will be able to take care of any of the standard issues which might accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Fulthorpe - Fulthorpe Fuel Rescue

A guy had broken down just near a road in Fulthorpe. His Citroen engine had ceased running and he had no clue what was wrong until he noticed he put petrol in his diesel car. He contacted us to request a fuel drain and it was then when he informed us: "I cannot believe that I did not know that I put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He stated that he had got absolutely no rest the night before and that must have been the key reason why.
