Below are the top services we give to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Leicestershire we are encountering more and more instances of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mainly due to people not understanding the way to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out asap. And obviously do not start up the motor - not even to shift it from the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you may probably need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, can be a significant situation to handle in a vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel is going to cause idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both circumstances rather easily.

Remember that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured close to a vehicle parking bay we can gain access to the tanks and remove the fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container placed at the back of your garden with unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many domestic and industrial premises in Leicestershire to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several drums in a shed, providing we can access it, we can certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Ibstock (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a full Leicestershire Out of Fuel Service. We will come to refill your vehicle in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) and refill your car or truck. They can also fix the typical issues which may come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Ibstock - Ibstock Fuel Rescue

A motorist had broken down just off a street in Ibstock. His Land Rover motor had stopped working and he'd no clue what was wrong until eventually he noticed he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle. He rang us to request a fuel drain and that is when he explained to us: "I can't believe that I didn't comprehend that I had put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had gotten very little rest the night before and that could have been the reason.
