Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue Contamination

In Wiltshire we have encountered more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is in part due to drivers not being totally sure the right way to use it (remember: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to one another on the automobile.

Well, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Since AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And most certainly be careful not to crank the engine - not even to shift it away from the pump. In case you did start the car you would likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually an important issue to handle in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel can potentially contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out fully, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both circumstances pretty easily.

Remember that so long as the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated close to a car parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir lying in the back of your garden with unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many private and business premises in Wiltshire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few drums in a storage shed, provided that we are able to get to it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Westrop (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a full Wiltshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to fill up the car any time you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at cost) and fill up your car or truck. They will fix the normal problems which may accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even flat batteries because of over-cranking.
