Services We Offer:

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Northumberland we are noticing more and more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent caused by drivers not knowing how to use it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to each other on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? As the product is mostly ionised water, it's like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

If you put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And most definitely don't start up the vehicle - not even to maneuver it off the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you may likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious condition to handle in a vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel can easily bring about idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not addressed fully, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both cases very simply.

Remember that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will likely be totally wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a car parking bay we are able to reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Got a fuel container laying at the back of your premises containing out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many private and industrial premises in Northumberland to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in a shed, assuming that we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Black Heddon (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full Northumberland Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to refill your automobile if you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home.

They will be able to handle any of the common problems that might come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Black Heddon - Black Heddon Wrong Fuel Assist

I'd had a fantastic afternoon golfing on the weekend and felt contented with myself the next day as I set out to aid a new couple who were on vacation in Black Heddon. They'd conked out after filling petrol into their Vauxhall, and were about an hour's drive away. I emerged at their location and smirked while I heard to the wife berating her man for being so silly. "How could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I wanted to explain that this problem takes place frequently in Northumberland and that it is nothing to be concerned about, and yet he in spite of everything got his ear bent. Poor guy. In any case, I drained all the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled it up with the right fuel. While they drove down the road I mouthed hasta la vista and pondered on what my missus would do to me if I did the same thing... I would never ever live it down!
