Our Services:

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

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Shropshire we have found increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is in part thanks to people not being totally sure how to use it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what's the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And of course take care not to switch on the motor - not even to relocate it from the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you would almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant condition to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel can easily produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both cases rather expediently.

You should know though that as long as the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to reach the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir laying in the back of your garden containing aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and industrial properties in Shropshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few drums in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to get to it, we can drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Basford (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a full Shropshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to refill your vehicle if you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) and fill your car. They will deal with any of the common problems that could go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.
