Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Gloucestershire we have discovered progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly thanks to drivers being unsure of the right way to work with it (take note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to each other on the car.

Well, what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is predominantly deionised water, it's almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it at once. And most certainly never crank the car - not even to shift it to a parking spot. In the instance that you have started the car you may most likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually an important issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel will often lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both circumstances rather quickly.

Keep in mind that in the event that the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container placed at the rear of your garden with unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many domestic and business properties in Gloucestershire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps some containers in a storage shed, if we are able to get to it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Out of fuel in Meysey Hampton (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a full Gloucestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to refill your car any time you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at cost) to fill your car. They can also deal with the normal troubles which can come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Meysey Hampton - Meysey Hampton Wrong Fuel Doctor

I had a wonderful day cycling on my day off and felt contented with myself the following working day as I set out to help a new family who were on vacation in Meysey Hampton. They had conked out after inserting the wrong fuel into their Audi, and were approximately an hour away. I emerged at their location and smiled to myself while I listened to the gal telling her husband off for being so foolish. "How could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I attempted to explain that this happens frequently in Gloucestershire and that it is nothing to be anxious about, however he all the same got an earful by his missus. Unlucky chap. At any rate, I extracted the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and gave them some correct fuel. While watching them drive off I mouthed so long and pondered on what my missus would say to me in the event that I did the same thing... I would personally under no circumstances live it down!
