Here are the top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over County Durham we are finding more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of people not understanding the way to to make use of (note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to one another on the car.

So, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call in the event that you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can take care of all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be an important condition to handle in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel will often contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both cases pretty quickly.

You should know that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will probably be completely wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel tank sitting at the back of the garden full of out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial premises in County Durham to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some drums in an outbuilding, providing we can access it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Fulthorpe (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a complete County Durham Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill the car in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump prices) and refill the car. They can also handle the most common issues that could accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
