Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we offer.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Leicestershire we have noticed an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a result of motorists not understanding the way to work with it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly next to each other on the automobile.

Well, exactly what is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it at once. And obviously be careful not to switch on the engine - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you may likely need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious condition to take care of in an automobile - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your diesel or petrol may well result in idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both situations fairly simply.

Bear in mind that as long as the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one is going to be totally water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a car parking bay we should be able to reach the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel reservoir lying in the back of the garden with unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial premises in Leicestershire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or even some containers in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Sharnford (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a full Leicestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to fill up the car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at cost) and refill the car. They will deal with any of the common troubles that can accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

A man had conked out just off a street in Sharnford. His Mitsubishi engine had ceased operating and he'd no clue what was awry until eventually he noticed he put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He called us to request a fuel drain and that's when he told us: "I cannot believe that I did not detect that I had put the incorrect fuel in my car." He claimed that he had got no sleep the evening before and that could have been the key reason why.
