Here are the top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Nottinghamshire we have found a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mainly a result of motorists not being aware of how to work with it (remember: it's actually not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained right away. And most definitely don't start the vehicle - not even to maneuver it to a parking place. If you did start the car you will in all likelihood need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious issue to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Having water inside your diesel or petrol can certainly bring about idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both situations fairly easily.

Be aware though that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will be completely water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a vehicle parking spot we can reach the storage and drain out the fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got a fuel container placed in the back of your garden containing aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several private and business properties in Nottinghamshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps some drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to access it, we are able to empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Hazelgrove (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a full Nottinghamshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to fill up your vehicle if you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at cost) and refill your automobile. They will handle the usual troubles that might go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Hazelgrove - Hazelgrove Wrong Fuel Assist

A motorist had conked out off a street in Hazelgrove. His Vauxhall motor had stopped functioning and he'd no clue what was faulty till he realised he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car. He rang us to get a fuel drain and that's when he informed us: "I cannot believe that I did not detect that I had put the wrong fuel in my car." He claimed that he had gotten virtually no rest the evening before and that could have been the reason.
