The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel reservoir laying at the rear of your garden with unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and business premises in Worcestershire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.

No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in a garage, providing we are able to reach it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be a serious condition to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank is likely to result in idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both circumstances rather swiftly.

Bear in mind though that as long as the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will likely be totally water-logged and unusable.
