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

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Gloucestershire we are discovering increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a degree stemming from motorists not understanding the way to to make use of (take note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to each other on the car.

So, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And most certainly take care not to crank the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking spot. If you have started the vehicle you would most likely need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious situation to take care of in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel may produce idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not addressed fully, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both cases pretty easily.

Bear in mind that as long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will likely be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to parking bay we can access the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

We have been called out to several private and industrial premises in Gloucestershire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a garage, provided that we are able to get to it, we can drain it for you.

Run out of fuel in Bradley Stoke (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete Gloucestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will come to refill your vehicle any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) and fill up your car or truck. They will be able to deal with any of the usual problems that could go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries because of over-cranking.
