Below are our top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over County Durham we are noticing a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent stemming from drivers not knowing how to use it (be aware: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to each other on the car.

Now, what is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Because the product is primarily deionised water, it is as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out at once. And certainly never switch on the vehicle - not even to relocate it into a parking bay. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will in all probability have to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant issue to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank can contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of than water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both situations fairly easily.

Remember however that so long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will probably be thoroughly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to an automobile parking spot we will be able to access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container in the back of the garden with unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and business premises in County Durham to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in a shed, provided that we are able to get to it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Cornforth (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a full County Durham Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to re-fill the car if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) to refill the car. They are also able to handle the most common troubles that might go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.
