Our Areas of Competency :

Listed here are the top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Berkshire we are noticing progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of drivers not knowing the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to each other on the automobile.

Well, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

Call us in the event that you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will correct different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually a serious issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the diesel or petrol can cause idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both circumstances rather swiftly.

Take note though that if the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated near to a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir placed at the back of your premises full of unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several domestic and commercial properties in Berkshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few drums in an outbuilding, as long as we can reach it, we could certainly empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Calcot (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a full Berkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill your vehicle any time you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump price) to refill the car. They can also fix any of the normal problems that could come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
