Offered Services:

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we offer.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over County Durham we are finding increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partly a result of drivers not knowing how to use it (note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to one another on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as the product is mostly ionised water, it's like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained immediately. And definitely be careful not to start the engine - not even to move it from the pump. In the event that you have started the vehicle you will in all probability need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a serious situation to deal with in a car - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol can easily trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can solve both circumstances quite simply.

You should know however that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will probably be thoroughly wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to access the storage and drain out the fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel container placed in the back of the garden full of old, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and business premises in County Durham to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a few drums in an outbuilding, if we can reach it, we can drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in West Cornforth (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a full County Durham Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to fill up the car in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump price) and fill up your car or truck. They can also handle any of the most common issues which can go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
