This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Nottinghamshire we have identified an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a degree a result of drivers not understanding the way to work with it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to each other on the car.

Well, exactly what is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is primarily deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

In the case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it asap. And obviously don't crank the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking place. If perhaps you have started the car you would in all likelihood have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally a significant condition to deal with in an automobile - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in diesel or petrol can contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both circumstances quite expediently.

You should know though that any time the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel container at the rear of the garden with unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can 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 taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even several containers in a storage shed, if we can access it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Colwick (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a full Nottinghamshire Out of Fuel Service. We can come to refill your vehicle if you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump price) to refill your car. They can also handle the standard issues that can go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
