Here are the top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Herefordshire we have noticed a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree a result of people not being totally sure the way to use it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to each other on the vehicle.

So, what's the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Because AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And most certainly take care not to start up the motor - not even to relocate it to a parking bay. In the event that you did start the car you may most likely need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant situation to address in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol can easily produce idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can handle both cases pretty easily.

Be aware that so long as the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will probably be totally wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured close to parking bay we will be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel reservoir lying in the back of your premises full of unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and industrial properties in Herefordshire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even a number of containers in a garage, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Ballingham (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a complete Herefordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up your car if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump prices) and fill your car. They will deal with the usual issues which could go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or maybe flat batteries because of over-cranking.


Fuel Drain Ballingham - Ballingham Wrong Fuel

A gentleman had conked out just near a road in Ballingham. His Dacia engine had stopped operating and he had no idea what was awry until eventually he realised he had put unleaded in his diesel car. He phoned us to get a fuel drain and that is when he explained to us: "I cannot believe that I didn't detect that I put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He stated that he had gotten virtually no sleep the night before and that could have been the key reason why.

With generations of shared fuel drain experience you could not be in better hands. Our agents have witnessed the lot and accomplished it all. They are qualified on the most recent cars and carry all appropriate certificates.

Some reviews:

We completed a wrong fuel retrieval job near a spectacular residence in Ballingham not so long ago. "I put the wrong fuel in my diesel car and managed to virtually reach home when my car quit." Our specialist went out, despite the fact that it was rather late at night, and carried out a thorough fuel drain and purge on the Suzuki .

Wrong Fuel Drain Ballingham - Ballingham Petrol in Diesel

This was certainly what is called an unsociable time to be up. It was around sunrise and almost noone was about. It had become rather quiet up to now, and Ray and I were relaxing browsing a number of old papers. It was an unusual quiet moment in Herefordshire. It was so relaxing that the moment the telephone finally rang it made me start! The customer on the phone said: "I have finished my evening shift and stupidly poured the wrong fuel in the Skoda". I instructed him to inform us exactly where the car was situated and we left, getting to him in Ballingham only half an hour later. The contaminated fuel was taken out from the engine and he said thanks a lot for coming so fast. As we were coming back to base we noticed two girls at the edge of the highway who appeared to have a flat tyre. Accordingly we pulled over to change it, much to their elation.

Fuel Rescue Ballingham - Ballingham Wrong Fuel Assist

A person called us from his residence on a close in Ballingham. He explained, "My car (a Citroen) is not running and is creating very bad sounds when I turn the key." He said that he had put unleaded in his diesel car however reckoned he would resolve the problem by putting further Diesel on top. We got there quickly, carried out the fuel drain and filled him up once more with clean Diesel. He told us he would be certain to explain to people not to fill up over the incorrect fuel but to have it cleaned out immediately.
