Our Areas of Experience :

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Gloucestershire we are noticing progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of people not understanding how to use it (pay attention: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to one another on the car.

Well, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Since the product is predominantly deionised water, it's like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Contact us in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily fix all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question a significant situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel can cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both situations pretty expediently.

Remember however that if the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one is going to be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a car or truck parking bay we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

We have been called out to several domestic and commercial properties in Gloucestershire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous drums in an outbuilding, providing we can get to it, we can certainly drain it.

Fuel Drain Barton End - Barton End Wrong Fuel

I'd had a perfect evening hiking during my off day and felt satisfied with myself the next working day as I set off to aid a young couple on holiday in Barton End. They'd conked out after inserting the wrong fuel into their Audi, and were roughly an hour's drive away. I emerged at their car and smirked to myself as I heard to the girl telling her husband off for being so daft. "Exactly how could you even be able to fill the car up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I wanted to tell her that this problem occurs regularly in Gloucestershire and that it's really absolutely nothing to be concerned about, nevertheless he yet still got an earful. Unlucky chap. Anyways, I drained out the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and gave it some right fuel. As they drove away I mouthed farewell and wondered what her indoors would tell me in the event that I made the very same error... I'd personally under no circumstances live it down!
