Services We Offer:

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

AdBlue Contamination

All over County Durham we have seen progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree as a result of people not knowing the way to to make use of (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly next to one another on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In case you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And obviously don't start the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking place. In the event that you have started the vehicle you may in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel can certainly trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed fully, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both situations fairly quickly.

You should know however that whenever the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will likely be wholly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated close to a vehicle parking bay we are able to reach the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel tank laying in the rear of the garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several private and commercial properties 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 dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or even a number of containers in a shed, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in West Park (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a complete County Durham Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to re-fill your vehicle in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill your car. They will take care of the usual problems which might accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

A gentleman contacted us from his home on a road in West Park. He explained, "My vehicle (a Dacia) is not starting and is generating very bad sounds when I turn the ignition."

We showed up promptly, performed the fuel drain and filled it up again with untainted Diesel. He told us he'd be certain to educate people not to fill up on top of the wrong fuel but to get it cleaned out immediately.
