Services We Deliver:

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we provide.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout County Durham we have noticed increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partially thanks to drivers being unsure of the way to to make use of (pay attention: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Well, precisely what is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

If you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it immediately. And most certainly take care not to start up the engine - not even to move it to a parking bay. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you would probably have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Having water in the petrol or diesel will likely produce idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both circumstances pretty expediently.

Be aware that as long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will likely be totally water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a car parking bay we can reach the storage and drain out the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

We have been called out to a number of domestic and commercial properties in County Durham to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even numerous drums in a shed, as long as we are able to get to it, we can drain it.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Tanfield - Tanfield Vehicle Misfuel

A person phoned us from his house on a close in Tanfield. He explained, "My car (a SEAT) is not running and is producing very bad noises when I turn the key." He said that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car but then believed he would fix the problem by putting additional Diesel on top. We got there quickly, performed the fuel drain and filled it up once more with untainted Diesel. He said after that he'd be sure to inform people not to fill up in addition to the incorrect fuel but to have it cleaned out immediately.
