Services Our Company Offers:

Here are the top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Herefordshire we are finding a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partially a result of people not understanding how to work with it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to one another on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? As the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it asap. And most definitely take care not to turn over the motor - not even to shift it away from the pump. If you did start the vehicle you may likely have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a significant condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel can potentially contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both cases pretty easily.

Be aware however that if the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel container laying at the rear of your garden with aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several domestic and industrial properties in Herefordshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps some containers in a shed, assuming that we are able to access it, we can empty it for you.

Run out of fuel in Ballingham (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full Herefordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill your car in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump price) and fill up the car.

Vehicle Misfuel Ballingham - Ballingham Fuel Drain

I had a terrific evening cycling on my afternoon off and felt delighted the following working day as I set off to assist a young family who were vacationing in Ballingham. They had broken down after filling petrol into their Volkswagen, and they were roughly an hour's drive away. I turned up at their location and laughed as I listened to the wife berating her spouse for actually being so stupid. "Just how could you even manage to fill the car up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I tried to clarify that this comes to pass continuously in Herefordshire and that it's nothing to worry about, nonetheless he yet still got an earful. Unfortunate boy. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the right fuel. While watching them drive off I shouted hasta la vista and considered what her indoors would say to me if ever I made the exact same mistake... I would personally never hear the end of it!

I was so worried about the wrong fuel in my car that I was in tears. But I shouldn't have worried seeing that you were fantastic in fixing it."
