Here are the top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

All over County Durham we have encountered progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent stemming from motorists not understanding how to use it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to one another on the automobile.

Well, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Since the product is primarily deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily correct all types of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant situation to address in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank can potentially lead to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both situations quite expediently.

Bear in mind however that any time the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured close to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir laying in the back of the garden with aged, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and business premises in County Durham to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several containers in a shed, assuming that we can access it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in South Hetton (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a full County Durham Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to fill up the car if you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at cost) to refill your car. They can also fix the most common problems that may come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries because of over-cranking.
