Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we give.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Shropshire we are identifying progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is in part stemming from motorists not understanding the right way to use it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to each other on the automobile.

Well, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And most certainly never crank the vehicle - not even to shift it into a parking area. If you have started the car you would very likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a serious condition to handle in an automobile - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank is likely to cause idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both circumstances quite swiftly.

Remember however that whenever the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a vehicle parking bay we are able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir placed in the rear of the garden with out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many domestic and industrial premises in Shropshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few drums in a storage shed, provided that we can get to it, we could certainly empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Rhyd-y-cwm (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a comprehensive Shropshire Out of Fuel Service. We will come to fill up your vehicle in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill your car. They can also handle the common problems that may accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries because of over-cranking.
