Below are our top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Oxfordshire we are noticing a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partially thanks to motorists not understanding how to work with it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to one another on the automobile.

Well, what's the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Since AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And of course don't switch on the vehicle - not even to shift it off the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you may almost certainly need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important condition to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel will produce idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied fully, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both circumstances quite simply.

Keep in mind however that if the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a car parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank laying at the back of the garden with aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many domestic and industrial properties in Oxfordshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a shed, providing we are able to reach it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Langley (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a full Oxfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can come to refill the car in cases where 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 come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump price) to fill your automobile. They will deal with any of the typical troubles which may go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Langley - Langley Fuel Removal

I had a perfect evening hiking during my afternoon off and felt delighted with myself the following working day as I set off to help a new couple on vacation in Langley. They pulled over after putting diesel in their Jaguar, and the car was roughly half an hour away. I showed up at their location and smiled while I listened to the lady telling her man off for being so silly. "Exactly how could you actually manage to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I attempted to tell her that this kind of thing happens continuously in Oxfordshire and that it is absolutely nothing to worry about, and yet he still got an earful. Unfortunate chap. At any rate, I drained all the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and gave them some correct fuel. While watching them drive off I mouthed good-bye and considered what her indoors would tell me if perhaps I made the exact same blunder... I'd never live it down!
