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

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Swansea we are noticing a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a degree stemming from motorists not being totally sure how to work with it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to one another on the car.

Well, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it immediately. And certainly never crank the car - not even to move it into a parking spot. Assuming you have started the car you may in all likelihood have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally a serious situation to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank is likely to lead to idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with fully, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of than water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both circumstances pretty simply.

You should know though that if the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir sitting at the rear of your garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and commercial properties in Swansea to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in a shed, as long as we can get to it, we can drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Pontardawe (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a complete Swansea Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to refill your car any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) to refill your automobile. They are also able to handle the normal issues that can go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Pontardawe - Pontardawe Wrong Fuel Assist

The other day a gentleman called us right after his Mitsubishi broke down on a road in Pontardawe. He had accidentally put petrol in the diesel car and was only able to get to the street before needing to pull over. It was in the early hours of the day and our engineer, who lives close by, got to him in less than a quarter hour. We managed to drain the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel yet again in to the vehicle. "Thank you for your fast response, particularly at 2 a.m., I really appreciate it."
