Listed here are the top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Westminster we are encountering a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a result of people not knowing the way to to make use of (important: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to one another on the car.

So, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Because AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained at once. And absolutely never turn over the motor - not even to shift it to a parking bay. In cases where you have started the vehicle you will almost certainly need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually a significant situation to address in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol is likely to produce idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both circumstances rather easily.

Bear in mind however that whenever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured near to a car or truck parking bay we can gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container laying at the rear of your garden containing out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many domestic and commercial premises in Westminster for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few drums in a garage, provided that we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Paddington (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a complete Westminster Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to re-fill your automobile in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill your car. They will handle any of the typical issues which can go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, as well as flat batteries due to over-cranking.
