Services We Offer:

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Nottinghamshire we have discovered a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to some extent due to people not being aware of how to work with it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since the product is mainly deionised water, it is almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

If you put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely take care not to start the car - not even to maneuver it to a parking spot. Assuming you have started the vehicle you will most likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually an important issue to deal with in a car - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank will likely bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both circumstances fairly quickly.

You should know though that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container lying in the rear of the garden containing unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and industrial premises in Nottinghamshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even numerous containers in a shed, provided that we are able to reach it, we can empty it.

We can come to fill up your vehicle in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) to fill up your car or truck. They are also able to take care of the usual troubles which can go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
