Services We Provide:

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

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Staffordshire we have discovered a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partly stemming from drivers not being totally sure the right way to work with it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right near to one another on the car.

Well, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? As AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us in the event that you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to handle every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a significant matter to address in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol is going to bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out than water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both cases pretty swiftly.

You should know however that any time the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will likely be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured near to an automobile parking bay we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Wrong Fuel in Car Hodgefield, Staffordshire

Wrong Fuel Hodgefield - Hodgefield Wrong Fuel in Car

I'd had a perfect evening hiking during my afternoon off and was feeling contented with myself the next day as I headed out to help a young family who were holidaying in Hodgefield. They'd pulled over after adding petrol in their Nissan, and the car was approximately half an hour away. I emerged at their location and smirked as I listened to the lady telling her partner off for turning out to be so confused. "How could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I wanted to tell her that this situation comes to pass frequently in Staffordshire and that it's absolutely nothing to be anxious about, nevertheless he all the same got an earful. Poor boy. At any rate, I drained all the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the proper fuel. Watching while they drove down the road I shouted good bye and considered what my wife would tell me if perhaps I made the exact same blunder... I'd personally never hear the end of it!
