We can help you with these mis-fuel mistakes.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Gloucestershire we are noticing a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a consequence of drivers being unsure of the way to use it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to one another on the car.

Now, what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since the product is predominantly deionised water, it's like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely don't switch on the car - not even to shift it off the pump. If perhaps you have started the car you may in all probability need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a serious condition to address in a vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in the diesel or petrol can easily bring about idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not addressed properly, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both circumstances very quickly.

Be aware however that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will probably be completely wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored near to a car parking spot we will be able to access the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir sitting at the rear of your premises containing unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and business properties in Gloucestershire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced 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 reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few drums in a shed, provided that we are able to reach it, we can empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Newtown (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a full Gloucestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to fill up your automobile in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at pump price) and fill up the car. They are also able to take care of the common issues which can accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe flat batteries due to over-cranking.
