Below are the top services we provide to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In County Durham we have identified increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mostly thanks to drivers not understanding the right way to use it (important: it is actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to each other on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And definitely be careful not to start the motor - not even to maneuver it to a parking bay. If you did start the vehicle you will very likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually a significant situation to handle in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel can certainly lead to idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain than water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both situations fairly swiftly.

You should know though that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will likely be wholly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a motor vehicle parking spot we can gain access to the tanks and remove the fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank laying at the rear of your premises full of unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial premises in County Durham for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some containers in a garage, if we are able to reach it, we are able to drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Ludworth (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a full County Durham Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to refill your car in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and refill your automobile. They can also handle the standard troubles which might accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Ludworth - Ludworth Fuel Drain

A man phoned us from his home on a street in Ludworth. He explained, "My vehicle (a BMW) is not running and is creating very bad sounds when I flip the key." He confessed that he put unleaded in his diesel car but then reckoned he would remedy the problem by putting extra Diesel on top. We got there promptly, did the drain and filled it up again with untainted Diesel. He told us that he would be sure to inform people not to fill up on top of the wrong fuel but to have it cleaned out promptly.
