Listed here are the top services we provide to our clients.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Gloucestershire we are finding increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent thanks to motorists not being aware of the right way to work with it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to one another on the automobile.

Now, what's the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel car? As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely be careful not to start the vehicle - not even to shift it away from the pump. In cases where you did start the vehicle you will in all probability need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important issue to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank will often contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both circumstances pretty quickly.

Bear in mind however that so long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one is going to be completely wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured near to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to access the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel tank sitting at the back of your garden full of out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and industrial properties in Gloucestershire to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few drums in an outbuilding, as long as we can access it, we can drain it.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Dorn (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a comprehensive Gloucestershire Out of Fuel Service. We will come to re-fill your car in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill up your automobile. They are also able to deal with any of the normal troubles which could come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Dorn - Dorn Fuel Drain

I had a perfect day cycling on my off day and felt pleased with myself the following working day as I was en route to help a new couple who were holidaying in Dorn. They'd stopped after filling petrol in their Land Rover, and the car was around an hour's travel away. I arrived at their car and smirked to myself while I heard to the gal telling her husband off for actually being so foolish. "How could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I attempted to explain that this takes place all the time in Gloucestershire and that it is nothing at all to stress about, even so he yet still got his ear bent by his missus. Poor boy. At any rate, I removed all the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the correct fuel. While watching them drive away I shouted good bye and considered what her indoors would tell me if perhaps I made the same error... I would never hear the end of it!
