Our Areas of Specialties:

We can help you with these mis-fuel mistakes.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Derbyshire we are encountering increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to drivers not understanding the right way to use it (important: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to each other on the car.

Well, what's the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Because the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call if you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to handle different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question an important issue to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol may result in idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both cases fairly quickly.

You should know however that so long as the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank sitting at the back of your garden full of aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and business premises in Derbyshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several containers in a garage, providing we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Lee Head (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a full Derbyshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill your car in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) to fill up your car. They will be able to deal with the common troubles that can come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
