Services We Deliver:

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout County Durham we are identifying more and more cases of AdBlue contamination when a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent due to people not understanding the right way to use it (take note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it at once. And obviously don't start up the car - not even to shift it into a parking area. Assuming you have started the car you may in all likelihood have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant situation to handle in a car - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol can easily lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both circumstances fairly simply.

You should know however that whenever the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will probably be completely wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to parking bay we should be able to reach the storage and remove the fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel container lying in the back of the garden containing unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and commercial properties in County Durham to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few containers in a shed, providing we can access it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Fir Tree (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a comprehensive County Durham Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to fill up your car if you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at cost) and refill the car. They are also able to handle the standard issues which could come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Fir Tree, County Durham

Fuel Removal Fir Tree - Fir Tree Fuel Rescue

I appreciated a fantastic evening fishing on the weekend and was feeling contented the next morning as I set off to help a young family vacationing in Fir Tree. They pulled over after filling the wrong fuel into their Dacia, and were approximately an hour's drive away. I arrived at their car and smiled while I listened to the lady telling her partner off for actually being so confused. "Exactly how could you actually find a way to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to tell her that this happens on a regular basis in County Durham and that it is absolutely nothing to get worried about, however he in spite of everything had an earful. Unlucky lad. In any case, I removed all the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. Watching them drive away I shouted farewell and wondered what her indoors would say to me if ever I did the very same thing... I'd under no circumstances hear the end of it!
