These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue Contamination

In Berkshire we have seen increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a consequence of drivers not being totally sure how to to make use of (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to one another on the car.

So, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel car? As AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And of course never crank the engine - not even to move it into a parking place. In cases where you did start the vehicle you would probably need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually a significant condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank is going to bring about idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of properly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain than water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both cases pretty expediently.

Keep in mind though that so long as the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured near to parking spot we should be able to reach the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel reservoir in the back of the garden containing unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial properties in Berkshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps some containers in a storage shed, assuming that we can access it, we are able to drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Bray (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a complete Berkshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to re-fill the car in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) to refill your car. They will deal with the usual problems which could go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.
