Services Our Company Offers:
Listed here are the top services we deliver to our customers.
AdBlue Contamination
In Berkshire we have noticed a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree thanks to motorists not being aware of how to use it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to one another on the car.
Now, what exactly is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.
Phone us if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to take care of all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually an important situation to deal with in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in fuel tank is going to result in idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both cases pretty expediently.
Keep in mind however that any time the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}
Waste Fuel Disposal
Have an old fuel reservoir at the rear of your garden with unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous privately owned and commercial properties in Berkshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous containers in a storage shed, provided that we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it for you.
Out of Fuel Service
Run out of fuel in Thatcham (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a complete Berkshire Out of Fuel Service. We can help to fill up your vehicle any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump price) and refill your car. They will take care of the typical problems that can accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries because of over-cranking.
