This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Buckinghamshire we have encountered increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly caused by people being unsure of the right way to work with it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to one another on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? As AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you end up in this situation don?t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our engineers have the practical competence and experience to get you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water in your fuel can potentially cause idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we can solve both cases quite quickly.

You should know however that as long as the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will be totally water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored close to an automobile parking bay we will be able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container at the back of your garden containing old, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many domestic and commercial premises in Buckinghamshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even some drums in a storage shed, if we can reach it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Princes Risborough (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a complete Buckinghamshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to refill your vehicle any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) to fill up your vehicle. They can also fix any of the usual troubles that could come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
