Helping you get back on the road is our primary goal.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Warwickshire we have identified an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly caused by drivers being unsure of the right way to to make use of (remember: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to one another on the car.

Well, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Call us if you are going through AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to attend to all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious issue to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in the petrol or diesel will result in idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both situations very easily.

You should know however that if the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will likely be totally wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated near to a car parking bay we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank laying at the back of the garden full of out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several private and industrial properties in Warwickshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even several containers in a garage, provided that we can reach it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Preston Fields (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a complete Warwickshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill your car any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) and fill up your car or truck. They can also deal with any of the standard issues that may go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
