Services We Provide:

Here are the top services we provide to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Birmingham we are identifying progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a degree thanks to motorists being unsure of how to work with it (pay attention: it is actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us if it turns out you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily take care of every type of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important situation to handle in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank is going to result in idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both cases quite quickly.

Bear in mind that in the event that the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to an automobile parking spot we should be able to access the storage and drain out the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank laying at the rear of the garden with out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many private and business properties in Birmingham for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or possibly even several drums in a storage shed, assuming that we can get to it, we can drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Bordesley (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a full Birmingham Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to fill up your vehicle in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) and fill the car. They will be able to handle the most common troubles which might go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, as well as dead batteries because of over-cranking.
