Our Services:

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

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Oxfordshire we are discovering more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a result of people being unsure of the way to use it (remember: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to each other on the vehicle.

So, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? As the product is primarily ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And most definitely do not crank the engine - not even to shift it off the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you would very likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually an important matter to address in a motor vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your diesel or petrol may well result in idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove than water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both circumstances quite simply.

Remember that in the event that the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will probably be totally wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container at the back of your garden with out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several domestic and commercial premises in Oxfordshire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in a shed, provided that we can reach it, we are able to drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Old Chalford (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a complete Oxfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to refill your car any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at cost) to fill your car or truck. They will handle the usual issues that can come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
