Our Fields of Specialties:

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Berkshire we are encountering more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a result of people not being totally sure the way to work with it (note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to one another on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Since the product is mostly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And of course do not start the motor - not even to relocate it off of the pump. If you have started the vehicle you will most likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious issue to handle in an automobile - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in diesel or petrol can trigger idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both circumstances pretty easily.

Be aware however that as long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one is going to be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to an automobile parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir lying in the back of your premises containing aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and business premises in Berkshire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even several containers in a garage, as long as we can reach it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Winding Wood (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a full Berkshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to re-fill your car if you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) and fill your car. They will fix any of the typical issues which could go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Winding Wood - Winding Wood Fuel Rescue

I had a terrific evening fishing on my holiday and was feeling satisfied the next morning as I set out to assist a young family who were on holiday in Winding Wood. They had pulled over after inserting petrol into their Vauxhall, and the car was about half an hour away. I emerged at their location and laughed while I heard to the gal telling her man off for actually being so silly. "How could you conceivably find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I tried to clarify that this kind of thing happens frequently in Berkshire and that it's absolutely nothing to be anxious about, and yet he still had an ear bashing by his better half. Unfortunate chap. Anyway, I removed all the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and gave them some appropriate fuel. Watching them drive off I shouted hasta la vista and wondered what her indoors would tell me if I did the exact same thing... I would personally never ever live it down!
