Here are the top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Nottinghamshire we are identifying an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mostly caused by people not knowing the right way to use it (please note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to one another on the automobile.

So, what's the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Because AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

If you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And absolutely do not switch on the vehicle - not even to relocate it away from the pump. If you have started the vehicle you would almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a serious situation to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel will often trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can solve both cases rather simply.

Bear in mind though that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container lying in the back of your garden full of out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous privately owned and commercial premises in Nottinghamshire to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to get to it, we are able to drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in South Leverton (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a comprehensive Nottinghamshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill your car if you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill up the car. They are also able to handle the standard issues which could go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even dead batteries because of over-cranking.
