Our Areas of Competency :

Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue Contamination

In Leicestershire we have found a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is in part stemming from drivers not being aware of the right way to work with it (note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to one another on the car.

Well, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Contact us in the event that you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to fix every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question a serious issue to deal with in a vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel may well trigger idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both circumstances quite easily.

Take note though that so long as the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel reservoir placed at the rear of your premises containing unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous domestic and business premises in Leicestershire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a few drums in a garage, providing we can reach it, we are able to drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Knossington (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a full Leicestershire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to fill up your vehicle any time you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) to fill your vehicle. They can also take care of any of the common troubles that may go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Knossington - Knossington Petrol in Diesel

I had a perfect evening hiking during my off day and was feeling satisfied with myself the following working day as I set out to aid a new couple who were holidaying in Knossington. They stopped after inserting petrol in their Citroen, and they were about half an hour away. I got there at their location and smiled as I heard to the gal telling her partner off for being so daft. "Just how could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I wanted to explain that this takes place quite frequently in Leicestershire and that it is absolutely nothing to be concerned about, even so he in spite of everything got an earful by his wife. Unfortunate lad. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. While they drove away I mouthed goodbye and considered what my missus would tell me if ever I did the same thing... I would personally never hear the end of it!
