Our Areas of Specialties:

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we provide.

AdBlue Contamination

In Oxfordshire we are discovering a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent stemming from motorists being unsure of the right way to work with it (important: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to each other on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out right away. And obviously never turn over the vehicle - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. In cases where you did start the vehicle you would most likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question a significant situation to deal with in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your diesel or petrol can certainly bring about idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain when compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both cases pretty simply.

You should know however that if the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car parking bay we can reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel container placed in the rear of your premises with unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial premises in Oxfordshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even a few containers in a garage, if we are able to reach it, we can empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Wantage (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a comprehensive Oxfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill your vehicle any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump price) and fill up your car or truck. They are also able to fix the most common problems that can come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Reports from our Wantage personnel:

A youngster who had only just got his licence had misfueled his Hyundai by having petrol in the diesel at the station close to Wantage. He said, "This is just the second occasion I have fuelled my car from the time when I paid for it and I have no idea of how to handle it." He was afraid because his dad had just recently paid for the car. He located us on the web and so called us right away, frightened about what he ought to do. Our man on the phones informed him that we could be on scene in forty five minutes and to not move the car while he waited.

A driver who had sadly put unleaded in his diesel MG called us for a fuel drain at the BP filling station in Wantage. He thought it would be good to fill up before continuing on to the nearby recreation park . "I put unleaded as opposed to diesel which unfortunately wasn't a wonderful way to begin to our holiday break." It was no problem at all for our technical engineer to go along and carry out the fuel drain. We hope the family enjoyed their getaway.

A person phoned us from his place on a close in Wantage. He pronounced, "My vehicle (a Chevrolet) is not running and is generating dreadful noises when I flip the key." He said that he put petrol in his diesel vehicle but then believed he would fix the problem by putting additional Diesel on top. We were on scene promptly, carried out the drain and filled it up again with fresh Diesel. He said he'd be sure to explain to people not to fill up over the wrong fuel but to have it cleaned out immediately.
