Services We Provide:

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we give.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Herefordshire we are finding a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly caused by people not knowing how to work with it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And obviously take care not to crank the motor - not even to move it from the pump. Assuming you have started the car you may most likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a significant matter to take care of in a car - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol will likely produce idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both circumstances very easily.

Keep in mind however that so long as the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will likely be wholly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank in the back of your garden full of old, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and commercial properties in Herefordshire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even a few drums in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it for you.

We're able to help to refill your vehicle in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home.
