Services We Deliver:

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Leicestershire we are encountering a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent thanks to motorists not understanding the way to work with it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? As the product is predominantly ionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call if you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily handle different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant issue to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your fuel can bring about idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain when compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both cases rather easily.

Take note though that if ever the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated near to a car parking bay we are able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel container in the back of your premises full of unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and industrial premises in Leicestershire to deal with 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. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in a shed, providing we can get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Market Overton (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a full Leicestershire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to re-fill your vehicle in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) and fill up your car. They are also able to deal with any of the common issues that may come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
