Services Our Company Offers:

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we give.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Gloucestershire we are encountering a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is in part due to motorists being unsure of the way to work with it (note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to one another on the automobile.

Well, precisely what is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

Should you find yourself in this scenario do not panic! Call us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our technicians have got the technical expertise and working experience to have you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually a serious condition to handle in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Having water inside your diesel or petrol is going to trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both circumstances quite expediently.

Bear in mind however that any time the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will likely be thoroughly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a car parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel container sitting in the rear of your premises with old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several private and industrial premises in Gloucestershire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even several containers in a storage shed, as long as we are able to access it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Out of fuel in Uckington (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a comprehensive Gloucestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will come to fill up your vehicle in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home.
