Our Areas of Experience :

We are willing to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue Contamination

In Staffordshire we have discovered progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is in part due to people not understanding the way to use it (pay attention: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Because AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

In case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely never crank the motor - not even to shift it from the pump. If perhaps you have started the car you would most likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, can be a serious issue to address in a car - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel may produce idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both circumstances rather simply.

Bear in mind however that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will probably be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir lying at the rear of your garden containing aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of private and business premises in Staffordshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a shed, if we can access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Burntwood (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a complete Staffordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to refill your automobile in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at cost) and fill the car. They are also able to deal with any of the most common troubles which might come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

A man contacted us from his house on a road in Burntwood. He said, "My vehicle (a Dacia) is not running and is producing dreadful sounds when I flip the ignition."

We were on scene promptly, carried out the drain and filled it up once more with clean Diesel. He told us that he would be absolutely sure to inform people not to fill up in addition to the wrong fuel but to get it drained immediately.
