Do you or your employees usually misfuel your vehicle? We can solve any related issues.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Berkshire we are discovering more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly stemming from people not knowing the right way to work with it (please note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to one another on the car.

So, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Since AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And most definitely be careful not to start up the car - not even to shift it away from the pump. In case you did start the car you would likely need to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a serious issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol may bring about idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied fully, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both circumstances very simply.

Take note that if ever the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a car parking spot we can reach the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container placed at the back of your premises full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and business premises in Berkshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or even some containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to reach it, we can drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Eton Wick (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a complete Berkshire Out of Fuel Service. We will help 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 possibly even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and fill the car. They will be able to deal with the standard problems which could go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Eton Wick - Eton Wick Wrong Fuel Assist

I had appreciated a great day cycling on my holiday and felt satisfied the following working day as I set out to help a new couple holidaying in Eton Wick. They'd broken down after adding petrol into their MG, and the car was roughly an hour's drive away. I emerged at their position and smiled as I heard to the lady telling her spouse off for actually being so stupid. "How could you even find a way to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to explain that this occurs on daily basis in Berkshire and that it's in reality nothing to worry about, nonetheless he in spite of everything had an ear bashing by his missus. I felt genuine sympathy for the boy. In any case, I removed all of the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and gave them some correct fuel. Watching them drive down the road I mouthed good bye and pondered on what her indoors would say to me in the event that I did the exact same thing... I would under no circumstances live it down!
