Our Services:

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

AdBlue Contamination

All over Argyll and Bute we are discovering a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a result of drivers being unsure of the right way to use it (take note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Because the product is mainly deionised water, it is just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

If you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And most definitely don't switch on the motor - not even to move it from the pump. Assuming you have started the car you would likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a significant situation to handle in an automobile - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel is going to lead to idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both cases fairly swiftly.

Remember that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will probably be wholly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a car parking bay we can access the storage and remove the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel reservoir sitting at the rear of your garden containing old, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several private and business premises in Argyll and Bute to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few containers in a storage shed, providing we are able to access it, we are able to empty it.

Run out of fuel in Rothesay (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a full Argyll and Bute Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill your automobile in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at cost) to fill up your automobile. They will be able to handle any of the usual troubles which could go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
