Our Areas of Expertise:

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Berkshire we are identifying a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part stemming from drivers being unsure of the way to use it (remember: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to each other on the automobile.

Well, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Since the product is mostly deionised water, it's almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

If in case you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it immediately. And definitely take care not to crank the car - not even to shift it to a parking place. In case you did start the car you would probably have to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important matter to address in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel is likely to cause idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both cases very swiftly.

Keep in mind though that any time the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will probably be wholly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a vehicle parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel container laying in the rear of your garden with unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and business premises in Berkshire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or possibly even some drums in a garage, assuming that we can access it, we are able to drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Westridge Green (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a comprehensive Berkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to fill up your vehicle any time you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump prices) and fill your car. They will handle the typical issues that could accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Westridge Green - Westridge Green Wrong Fuel Drain

I'd had a terrific evening fishing on my holiday and was feeling contented with myself the following morning as I set off to assist a new couple holidaying in Westridge Green. They conked out after filling the wrong fuel in their Honda, and were close to half an hour away. I arrived at their location and smiled to myself while I heard to the gal chastising her man for turning out to be so foolish. "Just how could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I tried to clarify that this occurs constantly in Berkshire and that it's absolutely nothing to stress about, and yet he still got his ear bent by his wife. Unlucky guy. Anyhow, I drained out all the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some proper fuel. Watching them drive down the road I mouthed farewell and wondered what her indoors would say to me in the event that I did the same thing... I would never live it down!

Recent Fuel Drains in Westridge Green

Just a few of the typical things we get from many of our technicians in Westridge Green:

We got a call from a customer whose Citroen had stopped on a road after a misfuel. "I got the pumps mixed up and put petrol instead of diesel in my car in error. You arrived and sorted out the situation right after my vehicle died." We drained the petrol from the diesel tank and flushed the fuel lines thoroughly and the driver could then continue with his deliveries.

Fuel Drain Westridge Green - Westridge Green Vehicle Misfuel

A woman from Westridge Green with a full car of little ones in her diesel Kia had put £50 of petrol at the Texaco petrol station. She called us sobbing and genuinely upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel before and didn't know what could happen to her car in doing so. We assured her that the vehicle should be ok and that she would be on the road very quickly. When we arrived on scene she was visible upset but as our technician got to work on the fuel drain she calmed down because she recognised that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't unfixable. She quickly brightened up and was up and running saying, "I really can't believe my luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Specifically with the kids on board."
