Offered Services:

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we offer.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Oxfordshire we have encountered increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent caused by motorists not knowing how to use it (please note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? As the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

If you find yourself in this scenario don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination company. Our engineers have got the technical skills and working experience to get you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally an important condition to deal with in a vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in your diesel or petrol can potentially trigger idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both cases pretty easily.

You should know though that as long as the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one is going to be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a car or truck parking spot we are able to gain access to the tanks and remove the fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel tank lying at the back of the garden full of old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and commercial properties in Oxfordshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in a shed, provided that we are able to reach it, we can drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Cuxham (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a full Oxfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to fill up your vehicle if you are stuck 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 (at cost) and fill up your car. They will be able to deal with the common issues which can accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Cuxham - Cuxham Vehicle Misfuel

A man rang us from his residence on a road in Cuxham. He explained, "My vehicle (a Mercedes) is not starting and is creating terrible noises when I turn the ignition." He said that he put petrol in his diesel car however believed he would resolve the issue by putting further Diesel on top. We showed up promptly, carried out the fuel drain and filled him up again with clean Diesel. He told us after that he'd be certain to inform people not to fill up on top of the incorrect fuel but to get it cleaned out immediately.
