Our Services:

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

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Gloucestershire we are discovering more and more cases of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part caused by people not knowing how to work with it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to each other on the automobile.

Well, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Because AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out immediately. And most certainly be careful not to crank the engine - not even to relocate it to a parking bay. If you have started the car you may most likely have to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a significant matter to handle in a car - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water inside your diesel or petrol is likely to lead to idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both circumstances very quickly.

Take note though that as long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will likely be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored near to a car parking spot we will be able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container sitting at the rear of your premises containing unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of private and commercial properties in Gloucestershire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a garage, assuming that we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Tarlton (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a full Gloucestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to refill your automobile any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) to fill up your car. They will be able to handle any of the common troubles that could come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Tarlton - Tarlton Fuel Rescue

I had a perfect afternoon hiking during my holiday and felt contented the following morning as I headed out to aid a new family on vacation in Tarlton. They'd broken down after putting diesel into their Volkswagen, and they were roughly an hour's travel away. I showed up at their position and smiled while I heard to the wife chastising her partner for being so silly. "How could you actually find a way to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to clarify that this kind of thing occurs quite frequently in Gloucestershire and that it's nothing to get worried about, however he all the same got an ear bashing. Unlucky lad. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed all the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave it some correct fuel. While they drove away I waved bon voyage and thought about what her indoors would say to me if perhaps I made the very same blunder... I'd never live it down!
