These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Gloucestershire we are encountering increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent due to drivers not being totally sure how to to make use of (be aware: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to each other on the car.

Now, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that the product is predominantly ionised water, it is almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

In case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And most certainly never start up the motor - not even to shift it into a parking bay. If you did start the car you will in all likelihood need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant issue to handle in a vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel may well lead to idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied fully, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both circumstances rather quickly.

Bear in mind though that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will likely be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to an automobile parking bay we will be able to access the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir laying at the back of the garden full of old, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many private and industrial premises in Gloucestershire to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even several containers in a shed, if we can get to it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Lyde Green (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a complete Gloucestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to fill up your car if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) to fill up your car. They can also take care of the normal issues that might accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
