Listed here are our top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Northumberland we have encountered increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partly due to drivers not understanding the way to work with it (please note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to one another on the vehicle.

So, what's the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Because the product is primarily ionised water, it's just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it asap. And definitely do not turn over the motor - not even to relocate it to a parking area. If you have started the vehicle you will almost certainly need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel can cause idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both circumstances fairly easily.

Take note however that whenever the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a motor vehicle parking bay we can gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel reservoir in the back of the garden with out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many private and commercial premises in Northumberland to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even several containers in a garage, as long as we can get to it, we can certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Halton Shields (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a comprehensive Northumberland Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill the car in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill the car. They will be able to fix the standard issues that might accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.
