Services Our Company Offers:
Below are the top services we give to our customers.
AdBlue In Your Diesel
In County Durham we are noticing more and more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is in part a result of drivers not understanding the right way to use it (pay attention: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to one another on the vehicle.
Well, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing that the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.
Phone us if you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can fix different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly an important condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel can certainly bring about idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of fully, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both cases quite expediently.
Remember however that if the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and unusable.
Boat Fuel Drains
If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to an automobile parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}
Removal of Waste Fuel
Have a fuel reservoir lying in the rear of your garden full of unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and business properties in County Durham to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few drums in a shed, providing we are able to get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.
Re-Fueling Service
Out of fuel in Bowbank (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a complete County Durham Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to re-fill your car in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill your car or truck. They are also able to deal with the normal problems that may come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
Fuel Removal Bowbank - Bowbank Petrol in Diesel
A motorist had stopped just near a road in Bowbank. His Hyundai car had stopped working and he had no idea what was awry until he realised he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle. He called us to request a fuel drain and that's when he said to us: "I cannot believe that I did not detect that I put the wrong fuel in my car." He claimed that he had got absolutely no sleep the evening before and that must have been the reason.
All of our technicians are qualified on the most recent vehicles and their fuel systems. We do well over 4 thousand wrong fuel removals each year in the United Kingdom (indeed, there are that many people today who also make the mistake - you are certainly not alone). Our call centres are open twenty four hours a day and every day of the week. Our technical engineers are on-call when ever you require them.
Recent Fuel Drains in Bowbank
Down below are feedback and examples of contaminated fuel removal we've done in Bowbank:
Now I'm not actually too interested in doing work weekends, and a while back was no different. I'd just left the family filled with a wonderful roast prepared by the wife, and I was on my way to help a gentleman who had put the incorrect petrol in his Kia. He was somewhere in Bowbank hence it wasn't a long time before I got to him. As I arrived at the rear of the vehicle and started work he said to me "Praise the Almighty! I foolishly had my thoughts on other considerations and failed to ascertain I have put diesel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I created some damage by simply driving it?" I revealed that generally there should not be any harm and also I would personally drain the wrong fuel as quickly as possible. It goes without saying that I removed the wrong fuel from the car and filled it with the correct fuel, and one more happy customer could carry on with their travelling without the need for hassle. The gentleman did not stop saying thanks to me, and this is what tends to make carrying out work on Sundays in County Durham that little less painful for me personally!
Fuel Drain Bowbank - Bowbank Petrol in Diesel
This was most definitely what we call the graveyard shift. It was around sunrise and almost noone was around. It was pretty uneventful thus far, and me and Paul were sitting reading a few old papers. This was a rare calm moment in County Durham. Actually it was in fact that relaxing that the instant my mobile ultimately rang it made me jump! The motorist on the phone said: "I have only just concluded my night shift and foolishly filled the wrong fuel in the Jaguar in error". We asked him to inform us exactly where the vehicle was and we headed out, arriving in Bowbank an hour later. The fuel was removed from the motor and he thanked us for getting there so rapidly. As we were returning home we spotted two young ladies on the edge of the street who seemed like they suffered a flat tyre. Obviously we pulled up to help them change it, to their elation.
Vehicle Misfuel Bowbank - Bowbank Petrol in Diesel
A customer called us from his home on a close in Bowbank. He exclaimed, "My vehicle (a Vauxhall) is not running and is making awful noises when I turn the ignition." He admitted that he put petrol in his diesel car but then reckoned he would solve the issue by putting further Diesel on top. We were on scene quickly, did the fuel drain and filled him up once more with untainted Diesel. He told us after that he'd be sure to advise people not to fill up on top of the incorrect fuel but to get it cleaned out promptly.
