Our Areas of Competence :

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

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Oxfordshire we have seen a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is in part thanks to motorists being unsure of the way to work with it (please note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to each other on the automobile.

So, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If in case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it immediately. And obviously be careful not to start the motor - not even to maneuver it to a parking area. In case you have started the car you will almost certainly need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant situation to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in petrol or diesel may well lead to idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove than water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both situations very swiftly.

Take note though that whenever the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a motor vehicle parking bay we can gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank laying at the back of your premises containing old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several domestic and industrial premises in Oxfordshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps some containers in a storage shed, provided that we can reach it, we are able to empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Banbury (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a comprehensive Oxfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to fill up the car in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump prices) and refill your car. They are also able to fix the common issues that might go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

A man called us from his house on a road in Banbury. He said, "My vehicle (a Smart) is not running and is generating very bad sounds when I flip the key." He admitted that he put the wrong fuel in his diesel car but then believed he would fix the problem by putting additional Diesel on top. We got there quickly, did the fuel drain and filled him up again with clean Diesel. He said he would be absolutely sure to tell people not to fill up in addition to the incorrect fuel but to get it cleaned out right away.

Recent Fuel Drains in Banbury

Several reports:

We were phoned by a customer whose Kia had broken down on a road because he put the wrong fuel in it. "I got the pumps mixed up and pumped petrol instead of diesel in my vehicle in error. You guys arrived and fixed the problem after my vehicle stopped." We drained the petrol from the diesel tank and flushed the system completely and the customer could then carry on with his sheduled delivery.

A person called us from his Volvo after he had broken down on the busy street. "I incorrectly put unleaded in my diesel car and I ultimately found out all about it a few miles down the road!" Thankfully we were able to have an engineer out to him in a relatively short time, considering the traffic, and he was before long back behind the wheel.

Wrong Fuel Banbury - Banbury Wrong Fuel in Car

A motorist had stopped just near a road in Banbury. His Volvo motor had stopped working and he'd no idea what was awry till he realised he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle. He phoned us to get a fuel drain and that is when he told us: "I can not believe that I did not know that I put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He stated that he had got no rest the day before and that must have been the reason.
