A motorist broken down on a street in Cockyard had to have a fuel drain roughly a few weeks ago. His Skoda was stopped on the side of the road after he had misfueled. He was relaxed when he rang us but a bit concerned to move his car away from the road since he was generating some congestion. We got to him in fifteen minutes as our drainer was in nearby Cockyard and had just concluded a fuel drain. He said, "I don't believe I put unleaded in my diesel car and got stuck here! My vehicle was not running well I simply were forced to pull over and after that it just conked."

Our service plan is totally mobile and we can easily come out regardless of exactly where you are and have the vehicle drained, cleaned and running just as before right away - and at an acceptable price!

AdBlue In Diesel

In Herefordshire we are encountering increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of drivers being unsure of the right way to use it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to each other on the car.

So, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Since the product is primarily deionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

Phone us in the event that you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to attend to all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually a serious issue to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can certainly trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both cases quite quickly.

Bear in mind that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked near to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel tank sitting at the back of your premises full of unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many domestic and commercial properties in Herefordshire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of containers in a shed, if we are able to get to it, we are able to empty it.

Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Cockyard (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a complete Herefordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill your automobile any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill your vehicle. They will handle the normal problems which might accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Cockyard, Herefordshire

Vehicle Misfuel Cockyard - Cockyard Petrol in Diesel

I enjoyed a great afternoon hiking on my off day and was feeling cheerful the following morning as I headed out to assist a young couple who were away in Cockyard. They broken down after filling diesel in their MG, and were about half an hour away. I turned up at their position and smiled while I heard to the girl telling her hubby off for turning out to be so silly. "Exactly how could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this happens constantly in Herefordshire and that it's truly absolutely nothing to be concerned about, but he in spite of everything got an earful by his better half. Unlucky lad. In any case, I removed all the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave them some correct fuel. While they drove down the road I shouted bon voyage and wondered what my wife would ask me if I did the exact same thing... I would never hear the end of it!
