Our Services:

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we give.

AdBlue Contamination

In Bedfordshire we are finding a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part stemming from people not understanding how to work with it (take note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to one another on the car.

Well, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

In case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And definitely take care not to crank the car - not even to maneuver it to a parking bay. In case you did start the car you will likely have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a serious situation to take care of in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank is likely to contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both circumstances quite simply.

Be aware though that any time the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to reach the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container laying in the back of your premises full of old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous privately owned and business premises in Bedfordshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in an outbuilding, as long as we can reach it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Slip End (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a full Bedfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up your vehicle any time you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) and refill your car or truck. They can also handle any of the most common problems that can accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, as well as dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

A customer rang us from his place on a street in Slip End. He explained, "My car (a Suzuki) is not starting up and is producing terrible noises when I flip the key."
