This is what we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Bristol we have discovered progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is in part as a result of motorists not understanding the way to work with it (note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to each other on the car.

Now, what's the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Because the product is predominantly deionised water, it is like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it asap. And certainly take care not to crank the car - not even to maneuver it into a parking place. In case you did start the car you would almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious situation to handle in a car - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank may well bring about idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out properly, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out than water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both situations pretty quickly.

Take note however that any time the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored near to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel reservoir laying at the back of your garden full of aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous privately owned and commercial properties in Bristol to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or possibly even some containers in a storage shed, providing we are able to get to it, we could certainly empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Hartcliffe (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a full Bristol Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to refill your automobile in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump prices) to refill the car. They will handle any of the typical troubles which may go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.


Vehicle Misfuel Hartcliffe - Hartcliffe Petrol in Diesel

I enjoyed a perfect day fishing on the weekend and was feeling pleased the next day as I headed out to aid a new couple who were away in Hartcliffe. They conked out after inserting the wrong fuel into their Ford, and were about half an hour away. I arrived at their position and smirked to myself while I heard to the wife berating her man for turning out to be so silly. "How could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I attempted to explain that this problem goes on regularly in Bristol and that it's really absolutely nothing to fret about, even so he in spite of everything had an ear bashing. Poor guy. In any case, I cleaned up and removed all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave them some correct fuel. Watching them drive down the road I shouted so long and pondered on what my wife would tell me if perhaps I made the same mistake... I would personally never live it down!

A person phoned us from Hartcliffe to say he stupidly piped petrol into his diesel Citroen. "What a pain! How could I put unleaded in my beautiful diesel car!" It only took our fuel drainer about 50 minutes to fully drain the incorrect fuel from the car. He totally flushed the fuel lines, filter and pumps and after that put fresh diesel in the vehicle. The customer was very pleased and it didn't cost him dealership prices to have the task professionally done.
