Below are the top services we provide to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Herefordshire we have discovered a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is in part as a consequence of drivers being unsure of the right way to to make use of (take note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to one another on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Because AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And absolutely be careful not to start the motor - not even to shift it off of the pump. In the event that you have started the vehicle you will likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally an important condition to handle in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank may produce idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both situations quite quickly.

Be aware however that in the event that the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will probably be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated near to a car parking bay we should be able to access the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

We've been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial properties in Herefordshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in a garage, if we can access it, we can certainly drain it.

Out of fuel in Eastwood (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full Herefordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill your car if you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill up your car. They are also able to take care of any of the usual issues which could go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Eastwood - Eastwood Fuel Drain

I'd had a terrific evening cycling during the weekend and felt contented the following day as I set off to help a young couple who were on vacation in Eastwood. They stopped after adding petrol in their Nissan, and they were roughly half an hour away. I emerged at their location and smiled as I heard to the wife telling her partner off for being so silly. "Precisely how could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I tried to clarify that this occurs all the time in Herefordshire and that it's nothing at all to be anxious about, even so he yet still got an ear bashing. Unlucky guy. At any rate, I removed the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the correct fuel. While watching them drive off I waved goodbye and considered what her indoors would do to me in the event that I did the exact same thing... I'd personally never hear the end of it!
