Our Areas of Expertise: Services We Provide:

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

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Cardiff we have discovered increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly due to drivers not understanding how to use it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to each other on the car.

So, what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out at once. And certainly do not crank the vehicle - not even to relocate it to a parking spot. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you may likely have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a serious matter to address in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in fuel can easily trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both circumstances rather expediently.

Remember however that whenever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will likely be completely wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to an automobile parking spot we should be able to access the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container sitting at the back of your premises with out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and business properties in Cardiff for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few containers in a shed, if we are able to get to it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Creigiau (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a comprehensive Cardiff Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to refill your car if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at cost) and fill your car or truck. They can also take care of any of the typical troubles that can accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Creigiau - Creigiau Vehicle Misfuel

A customer had conked out near a street in Creigiau. His Nissan motor had stopped operating and he'd no clue what was wrong until eventually he realised he put unleaded in his diesel car. He called us to request a fuel drain and it was then when he told us: "I cannot believe that I did not know that I had put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He stated that he had gotten virtually no sleep the evening before and that could have been why.
