Our Areas of Experience :

Do you or your drivers usually misfuel your car? We can resolve any related problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Berkshire we have found an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partially as a consequence of drivers not understanding how to use it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to one another on the car.

So, what's the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing as the product is primarily deionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

Give us a call in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to attend to different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually a significant condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in fuel can lead to idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both situations rather easily.

Keep in mind however that if the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to parking bay we are able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel tank sitting at the rear of your garden full of out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and business properties in Berkshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even numerous containers in an outbuilding, as long as we can access it, we are able to empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Winterbourne (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full Berkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to re-fill the car if you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill your car or truck. They will deal with the common issues which may accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or maybe dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Winterbourne - Winterbourne Wrong Fuel

I enjoyed a great day cycling during my day off and felt delighted the following morning as I headed out to assist a new family on holiday in Winterbourne. They conked out after adding petrol in their MG, and the car was about an hour away. I arrived at their location and smirked while I heard to the woman berating her partner for turning out to be so silly. "How could you actually be able to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to explain that this comes to pass continuously in Berkshire and that it's actually nothing to get worried about, but he still got an ear bashing. Unfortunate boy. In any case, I extracted the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some right fuel. While watching them drive off I mouthed so long and thought about what my wife would ask me if I did the exact same thing... I would under no circumstances live it down!
