Offered Services:

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we give.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Gloucestershire we have encountered an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly caused by people not being totally sure the right way to use it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to each other on the automobile.

Well, exactly what is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And definitely do not start the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking place. Assuming you did start the vehicle you would in all probability have to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally a serious condition to deal with in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel may well produce idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied fully, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both circumstances rather quickly.

Be aware that as long as the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one is going to be totally wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a car parking bay we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank sitting at the back of your garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous domestic and commercial premises in Gloucestershire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or even several drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Newnham (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a complete Gloucestershire Out of Fuel Service. We will help to re-fill your vehicle in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at cost) and fill up the car. They are also able to fix the common troubles that might come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
