Do you or your drivers usually misfuel your vehicle? We can resolve any connected issues.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Gloucestershire we have encountered a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part due to drivers not understanding how to to make use of (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly next to one another on the automobile.

Now, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? As the product is predominantly deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely be careful not to turn over the car - not even to shift it off of the pump. If you did start the vehicle you may in all likelihood have to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious condition to handle in a car - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your diesel or petrol can potentially trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both situations quite expediently.

Bear in mind that if the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will probably be completely wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel reservoir lying at the back of the garden full of out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many private and business properties in Gloucestershire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even several containers in a storage shed, if we can get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Fuel Rescue Lower Slaughter - Lower Slaughter Fuel Rescue

I'd had a perfect evening cycling on the weekend and was feeling cheerful with myself the next day as I headed out to assist a young couple who were holidaying in Lower Slaughter. They had pulled over after putting diesel in their Hyundai, and the car was close to an hour away. I emerged at their position and laughed while I listened to the woman berating her husband for actually being so confused. "Precisely how could you actually find a way to fill the car up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I wanted to explain that this occurs continuously in Gloucestershire and that it's actually nothing at all to be concerned about, but he all the same had an ear bashing by his better half. Poor lad. Anyhow, I drained out the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and filled them up with the proper fuel. While watching them drive away I waved good bye and wondered what my wife would ask me if I did the same thing... I'd personally never ever hear the end of it!
