Here are the top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Staffordshire we have noticed a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partially thanks to people not knowing the way to work with it (please note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to one another on the car.

Now, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As the product is primarily ionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it immediately. And of course take care not to crank the car - not even to move it into a parking place. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you may very likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually an important condition to address in an automobile - especially in current day common-rail engines. Having water in diesel or petrol can easily contribute to idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both circumstances rather swiftly.

Bear in mind that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured near to a car parking bay we can reach the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel reservoir lying at the back of your premises containing unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial properties in Staffordshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even a few containers in a storage shed, providing we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Sandyford (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a comprehensive Staffordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill your vehicle in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) and fill up the car. They will be able to take care of any of the common issues that may go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
