Our Areas of Expertise :

Listed here are the top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

In Gloucestershire we are finding increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part caused by drivers not being totally sure the way to work with it (please note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Now, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Since AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In case you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it asap. And most definitely do not switch on the vehicle - not even to shift it away from the pump. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you may in all likelihood need to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a significant matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel can certainly result in idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both situations fairly expediently.

Keep in mind however that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will likely be completely water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we can access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

We have been called out to numerous privately owned and business premises in Gloucestershire to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in a garage, assuming that we are able to reach it, we are able to empty it for you.
