Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we provide.

AdBlue In Diesel

In West Midlands we have encountered a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly caused by motorists not knowing how to to make use of (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it is almost the same 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. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can attend to all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a serious condition to address in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel is going to result in idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both situations quite swiftly.

Be aware though that if ever the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured near to a car parking spot we should be able to reach the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container laying in the back of your garden containing unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and business properties in West Midlands to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several containers in a storage shed, as long as we are able to reach it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Alum Rock (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a complete West Midlands Out of Fuel Service. We can come to fill up the car if you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at pump prices) to fill up the car. They will handle any of the most common issues which may go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
