Our Areas of Competence :

Below are our top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Gloucestershire we are discovering increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a result of motorists not being aware of the way to use it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly next to each other on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out at once. And certainly don't crank the motor - not even to shift it to a parking spot. Assuming you did start the vehicle you would probably need to have the full fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be an important condition to handle in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol can cause idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both situations quite quickly.

Bear in mind that whenever the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close to parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir lying in the back of your garden with unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many domestic and industrial properties in Gloucestershire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or even a number of drums in an outbuilding, if we are able to get to it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Britain Bottom (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full Gloucestershire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill your vehicle in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill up the car. They are also able to handle the normal troubles which could come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.
