Other Services

Apart from draining out the wrong fuel in a car, we offer other services linked to that. To name one is disposing of the contaminated fuel the right and legal way. This is because your average mechanic is not allowed to do it these days because it can easily damage the environment and even contaminate the local water supply. Not only we are certified by the Environment Agency, we also have the correct devices for disposing contaminated fuel.

To our clients in the private or commercial field, we offer this service of discarding contaminated fuel separately. If you are a client looking for this service, all you must do is give us access to the fixed, mobile storage tank, or any other container where it is kept, and be assured that we will empty them out and then eliminate the contaminated fuel in accordance with the security regulations in place.

Water and AdBlue Contamination

If your fuel system has water in it, irregularities of behavior will start to be shown by your engine. Symptoms stated above for an engine with the incorrect fuel can also be noticed if the fuel system has water in it. This includes low power, lots of smoke coming out of the exhaust, irregularities on how the car runs and even failing to run at all. This situation of water contamination can extend its damage to the fuel filters.

The same set of symptoms may also be due to somebody attempting to put AdBlue directly into the fuel tank of a diesel engine. This can be done so by adding it to its own separate tank and dosing system which is inbuilt into the vehicle.

If you are faced with either of these two problems then you shouldn't feel worried as we can handle both of these issues utilizing similar process we use in cases of wrong fuel contamination.

This was certainly what we call an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was roughly dawn and noone was around. It had become pretty dead so far, and me and Ryan were relaxing looking at a number of old papers. It was an unusual peaceful moment. Actually it was so relaxing that when the telephone finally rang it made me jump! The customer said: "I have finished my night shift and incredibly poured petrol in the Ickham by mistake". We asked him to let us know where the vehicle was and we set off, ending up under an hour or so later. The wrong fuel was cleaned from the vehicle and he said thanks a lot for coming out so promptly. While we were returning to the depot we noticed two girls on the side of the highway who seemed to have a puncture. Accordingly we stopped and helped them change it, much to their delight.
