Our Fields of Expertise:

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we offer.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Staffordshire we have noticed progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent stemming from people not being totally sure the way to work with it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

In the event that you put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And most definitely don't turn over the engine - not even to move it to a parking bay. In cases where you did start the car you would almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly an important condition to deal with in a car - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel tank will likely trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both situations fairly simply.

Keep in mind that whenever the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored close to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel tank at the rear of your garden containing unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many domestic and business premises in Staffordshire to take care of draining and disposing of 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 an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some containers in a garage, provided that we are able to reach it, we can empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Leek (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a full Staffordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up the car in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill your car. They can also take care of the normal problems which might go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
