Below are our top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

In County Durham we are identifying a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partially caused by motorists not understanding how to use it (be aware: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Because AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Contact us if you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to correct all types of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a serious issue to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol can potentially bring about idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both cases very simply.

Keep in mind though that if the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir lying at the back of the garden full of unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of private and industrial properties in County Durham to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few drums in a storage shed, provided that we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Edmondbyers (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a full County Durham Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill your vehicle in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill the car. They are also able to handle any of the usual problems which might go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Edmondbyers - Edmondbyers Wrong Fuel Doctor

A person called us from his house on a street in Edmondbyers. He exclaimed, "My vehicle (a Audi) is not starting up and is producing very bad noises when I turn the key." He confessed that he had put unleaded in his diesel car but then believed he would solve the problem by putting further Diesel on top. We showed up promptly, did the fuel drain and filled it up once more with clean Diesel. He told us after that he'd be absolutely sure to tell people not to fill up on top of the wrong fuel but to have it drained immediately.
