Services We Give:

Do you or your drivers usually misfuel your car? We can resolve any related issues.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Gloucestershire we have found progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly a result of drivers not knowing the right way to use it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Since AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it right away. And absolutely take care not to turn over the engine - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. In case you have started the vehicle you would most likely have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank may well lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both cases very swiftly.

Keep in mind however that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will be completely water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured near to a car parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank at the back of your premises full of aged, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many private and commercial premises in Gloucestershire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few containers in a shed, if we are able to reach it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Windrush (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a complete Gloucestershire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to fill up your car in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) to fill your vehicle. They can also take care of the normal issues that might go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
