Listed here are the top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over County Durham we have identified an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partially thanks to drivers not understanding how to use it (note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

In the case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely do not switch on the motor - not even to move it away from the pump. In the event that you have started the car you will likely need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be an important situation to handle in an automobile - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank may contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both situations fairly quickly.

Keep in mind that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will be completely water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to an automobile parking bay we can gain access to the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank placed at the back of the garden with out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several domestic and industrial premises in County Durham for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a few containers in a shed, provided that we are able to reach it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Oak Tree (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete County Durham Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to refill your car any time you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and fill your car. They are also able to fix the common issues which might go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, as well as flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Oak Tree - Oak Tree Fuel Rescue

A customer contacted us from his residence on a close in Oak Tree. He exclaimed, "My vehicle (a Chevrolet) is not starting and is generating very bad noises when I turn the key." He said that he put petrol in his diesel car but then thought he would fix the problem by putting more Diesel on top. We got there promptly, did the fuel drain and filled him up once again with fresh Diesel. He said after that he'd be absolutely sure to inform people not to fill up in addition to the incorrect fuel but to get it drained immediately.
