Below are the top services we provide to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Bedfordshire we have encountered increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of drivers not knowing the right way to work with it (pay attention: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If you find you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out right away. And most certainly never turn over the motor - not even to shift it from the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you would very likely have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally an important situation to deal with in an automobile - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in diesel or petrol is likely to produce idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both situations quite expediently.

Be aware however that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will be completely wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to an automobile parking spot we are able to access the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir placed in the rear of your garden full of old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and industrial properties in Bedfordshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in a shed, as long as we can access it, we can drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Coopers Hill (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete Bedfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to fill up the car in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump price) to fill up the car. They will take care of any of the normal issues that might go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Coopers Hill - Coopers Hill Wrong Fuel Doctor

I had a terrific afternoon fishing during the weekend and was feeling contented the next day as I set out to help a young couple on vacation in Coopers Hill. They conked out after inserting diesel into their Nissan, and were approximately half an hour's travel away. I arrived at their location and laughed while I listened to the wife telling off her man for actually being so foolish. "How could you actually find a way to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to tell her that this situation occurs continuously in Bedfordshire and that it is absolutely nothing to be anxious about, even so he in spite of everything got his ear bent. I felt genuine sympathy for the boy. In any case, I extracted all of the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the right fuel. Watching them drive off I waved goodbye and pondered on what my missus would tell me if ever I made the same blunder... I would never live it down!
