Do you or your drivers usually misfuel your vehicle? We can resolve any related problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Oxfordshire we have found a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of people not knowing the right way to use it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

If you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out at once. And of course be careful not to crank the vehicle - not even to relocate it into a parking spot. In cases where you did start the vehicle you may most likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually an important situation to handle in an automobile - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Having water inside your diesel or petrol can potentially produce idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both circumstances rather easily.

Be aware however that if the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will probably be completely wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to parking bay we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel container laying in the rear of your premises with unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several private and business premises in Oxfordshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some drums in a storage shed, as long as we can get to it, we are able to drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Cuxham (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a full Oxfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to refill the car in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump prices) to refill your car or truck. They will deal with any of the usual problems which could come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even flat batteries due to over-cranking.
