Our Areas of Competence :

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

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Gwynedd we have noticed an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is in part as a consequence of people not being totally sure the way to to make use of (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to each other on the car.

Well, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is primarily ionised water, it is just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it asap. And most certainly do not turn over the engine - not even to shift it into a parking spot. In the instance that you have started the car you would in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank may well lead to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both circumstances fairly quickly.

Remember that any time the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a car or truck parking bay we are able to access the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel tank at the back of your garden full of aged, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial premises in Gwynedd for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even some containers in a garage, as long as we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Penygroes (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a full Gwynedd Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to fill up your vehicle in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) to refill the car. They can also fix the common problems which can go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
