Services We Offer:

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Wiltshire we are finding progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partly caused by people not understanding how to use it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly next to each other on the car.

Well, what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And certainly take care not to turn over the car - not even to relocate it into a parking area. In the event that you have started the vehicle you will in all likelihood have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious situation to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank will often contribute to idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove than water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both situations fairly quickly.

Remember though that whenever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked near to a car or truck parking bay we can reach the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel container at the back of the garden containing unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many private and industrial premises in Wiltshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps several drums in a storage shed, provided that we can get to it, we can certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Charlton (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a complete Wiltshire Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to refill the car in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) and refill your car or truck. They can also handle any of the typical troubles that might go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Stories from our Charlton mechanics:

No one likes grinding to a halt in a automobile full of the wrong fuel halfway down the road. One of our most recent customers who filled her car with the incorrect fuel (Honda) in Charlton suffered exactly this kind of dilemma: "As you know I foolishly filled my petrol car with diesel last week. I was so stressed about contaminating my fuel that I was in tears. Nonetheless I didn't need to worry because you were fantastic in sorting the problem out."

Fuel Removal Charlton - Charlton Wrong Fuel

A customer from Charlton with her little ones in her diesel Skoda had filled her car with £30 of petrol at the Texaco filling station. She phoned us weeping and extremely upset as she had never wrong fuelled and didn't know what would happen to her car . We reassured her that all should be ok and that she would be in action very quickly. When we got there she was visible upset but as our technician started work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she saw that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't wrecked.

Petrol in Diesel Charlton - Charlton Wrong Fuel in Car

I'd had a perfect afternoon golfing during my off day and was feeling pleased with myself the following morning as I headed out to help a new family who were away in Charlton. They had conked out after inserting the wrong fuel into their Vauxhall, and were about an hour away. I got there at their car and laughed to myself as I listened to the lady berating her spouse for turning out to be so daft. "How could you possibly find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I tried to tell her that this kind of thing occurs on a regular basis in Wiltshire and that it's in reality absolutely nothing to be concerned about, and yet he still got an earful by his missus. Unfortunate guy. In any case, I removed the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and gave them some correct fuel. While watching them drive down the road I shouted hasta la vista and wondered what her indoors would ask me if I did the very same thing... I'd never live it down!
