Here are the top services we give to our clients.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Berkshire we are discovering increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is in part caused by people being unsure of how to work with it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to each other on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

If you find you put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it asap. And of course never start up the car - not even to move it from the pump. In cases where you did start the car you would in all likelihood need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a significant condition to take care of in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water inside your petrol or diesel may cause idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both situations rather quickly.

Take note however that if ever the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will probably be thoroughly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a car or truck parking bay we can gain access to the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel tank sitting in the rear of the garden full of aged, 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 business properties in Berkshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or even some drums in a shed, providing we are able to get to it, we can drain it.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Skinners Green (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a comprehensive Berkshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to fill up your vehicle in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at cost) and refill the car. They can also fix any of the standard troubles that may come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even flat batteries due to over-cranking.
