Our Areas of Expertise: Services We Offer:

Listed here are the top services we provide to our customers.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout County Durham we have seen more and more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of motorists not being aware of how to use it (note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to each other on the car.

Now, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that the product is predominantly deionised water, it is just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us if you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily take care of all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely a significant issue to address in an automobile - especially in modern common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel can easily trigger idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not remedied properly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both circumstances very swiftly.

Keep in mind though that as long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will likely be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to an automobile parking bay we will be able to reach the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel reservoir laying at the rear of your garden full of old, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial premises in County Durham to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a garage, assuming that we can get to it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Butterknowle (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a comprehensive County Durham Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to re-fill your car in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill your car. They can also fix any of the standard troubles which can come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

We were phoned by a customer whose Chevrolet had conked out on a road after a misfuel. "I confused the pumps and pumped the wrong fuel in my vehicle by mistake. These guys came out and sorted out the matter right after my car quit." We drained the wrong fuel from the diesel tank and flushed the fuel lines meticulously and the driver could then continue on with his deliveries.

Wrong Fuel Butterknowle - Butterknowle Wrong Fuel in Car

A lady from Butterknowle with her kids in her diesel Jaguar had filled her car with £40 of petrol at the Co Op filling station. She phoned us crying and extremely upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel and didn't know what would happen to her car in doing so. We told her that everything should be ok and that she would be back up and running quickly. When we got there she was still upset but while our engineer got to work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she recognised that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't wrecked. She soon brightened up and was on her way saying, "I just can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Particularly with the kids in the back."

Fuel Drain Butterknowle - Butterknowle Fuel Drain

I'd had a wonderful day cycling on my day off and was feeling contented the next working day as I set out to assist a young couple who were vacationing in Butterknowle. They had conked out after adding the wrong fuel in their MG, and were about an hour's drive away. I showed up at their position and smirked to myself while I heard to the girl telling her spouse off for actually being so silly. "Precisely how could you actually find a way to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she told him. I wanted to explain that this happens constantly in County Durham and that it is nothing at all to get worried about, but he all the same got an ear bashing by his wife. Unfortunate lad. Anyways, I removed the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the proper fuel. While watching them drive down the road I mouthed good-bye and thought about what my wife would ask me if ever I made the same mistake... I'd personally under no circumstances live it down!
