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

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Berkshire we are encountering increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is in part thanks to drivers not being aware of how to work with it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And certainly be careful not to start up the motor - not even to relocate it off of the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you would likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question an important situation to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank can bring about idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out properly, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both circumstances pretty simply.

Be aware however that in the event that the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will probably be totally wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel tank laying in the back of your garden with unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several private and business properties in Berkshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few containers in an outbuilding, if we are able to reach it, we could certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Pangbourne (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete Berkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to re-fill the car any time you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at cost) to fill your car or truck. They are also able to deal with any of the standard issues that may go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, as well as flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
