Services We Provide:

Here are the top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Shropshire we are finding progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partly caused by motorists being unsure of how to use it (remember: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to each other on the car.

Well, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? As AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Call us in the event that you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to handle every type of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious condition to take care of in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel will likely trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both circumstances rather expediently.

Take note that as long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will likely be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel container sitting in the rear of your premises full of aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many private and commercial properties in Shropshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several drums in an outbuilding, if we can access it, we can empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Longden (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a comprehensive Shropshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to refill your car in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill your vehicle. They can also deal with any of the normal problems which might go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Longden - Longden Wrong Fuel

I'd had a perfect evening fishing during my day off and was feeling cheerful with myself the following day as I headed out to help a new couple vacationing in Longden. They'd broken down after inserting diesel in their Chevrolet, and they were close to half an hour's travel away. I emerged at their position and smirked to myself as I listened to the girl telling her partner off for turning out to be so stupid. "How could you actually be able to fill the car up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I wanted to clarify that this kind of thing takes place constantly in Shropshire and that it's really absolutely nothing to be anxious about, even so he in spite of everything got an ear bashing. Unlucky guy. Anyway, I removed all the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the right fuel. While they drove off I shouted good bye and wondered what my wife would tell me if perhaps I made the very same blunder... I would personally never hear the end of it!
