Our Services:

Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In County Durham we are finding increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a result of motorists being unsure of the right way to use it (note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

So, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing that the product is mainly deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily take care of all types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question an important condition to deal with in an automobile - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol may result in idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with fully, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both cases quite easily.

You should know however that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one is going to be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a car parking spot we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel reservoir lying at the rear of your garden with aged, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous domestic and business properties in County Durham for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in a garage, providing we can get to it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in West Cornforth (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a full County Durham Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up your vehicle any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) to fill the car. They can also handle the most common problems that might accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel West Cornforth - West Cornforth Petrol in Diesel

A man contacted us from his home on a street in West Cornforth. He explained, "My car (a Audi) is not running and is producing dreadful noises when I turn the ignition." He confessed that he had put unleaded in his diesel vehicle however thought he would resolve the issue by putting further Diesel on top. We showed up quickly, performed the drain and filled it up again with untainted Diesel. He told us after that he would be certain to inform people not to fill up over the incorrect fuel but to get it drained right away.
