Services We Offer:

Here are the top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Durham we have identified an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of drivers not being totally sure the way to use it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because the product is mostly ionised water, it is almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And most certainly take care not to start up the vehicle - not even to relocate it from the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you may almost certainly have to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious condition to handle in a car - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in petrol or diesel will cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both situations quite simply.

Remember however that in the event that the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a car or truck parking spot we can access the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

We have been called out to many private and industrial premises in Durham to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages.

Fuel Drain Darlington - Darlington Wrong Fuel Drain

This really was an unsociable time to be up. It was close to 3:30am and nobody was stirring. It had become rather dead up to now, and Paul and I were sitting about looking at several old papers. That was an uncommon calm hour in Durham. Actually it was indeed that quiet that the moment the telephone eventually rang it made me jump! The customer said: "I've only just finished my overnight shift and incredibly put petrol in the diesel Fiat by mistake". We told him to inform us just where he was and we headed out, ending up in Darlington not as much as half an hour later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned from the motor and he thanked us profusely for arriving so promptly. As we were going back to base we found two young ladies on the edge of the road who appeared to have a puncture. As a result we stopped and helped them change it, much to their elation.
