Our Areas of Specialties:

This is what we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Northamptonshire we have discovered more and more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is in part due to motorists not being aware of the way to work with it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to one another on the car.

So, what is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? As the product is predominantly deionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it asap. And certainly never turn over the vehicle - not even to maneuver it from the pump. If you did start the vehicle you may most likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious issue to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel will produce idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both cases fairly quickly.

Keep in mind however that so long as the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will be completely wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a car parking spot we can access the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir lying in the rear of the garden with unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial properties in Northamptonshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or even a number of drums in a garage, providing we can get to it, we can empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Astrop (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a comprehensive Northamptonshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up your automobile any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill up your automobile. They will deal with the normal troubles which may go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Recent Fuel Drains in Astrop

Tales from our own Astrop team:

We were called by a gentleman whose MG had broken down on a road because he put the wrong fuel in it. "I mixed up the pumps and pumped petrol instead of diesel in my vehicle in error. You guys arrived and resolved the situation after my vehicle gave up." We purged the petrol from the diesel tank and flushed the fuel lines meticulously afterwards and the gentleman could proceed with his deliveries.

A customer who had unluckily put unleaded in his diesel Nissan phoned us for help at the Shell petrol filling station in Astrop. He decided to top up before proceeding on to the local recreation park but had put the wrong fuel in his car. "I put unleaded instead of diesel and it wasn't a smart way to start to our getaway." It was certainly no challenge whatsoever for our technician to go along and do the fuel drain. We hope they had a good vacation.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Astrop - Astrop Wrong Fuel in Car

A gentleman had broken down just off a street in Astrop. His Land Rover motor had ceased working and he had no clue what was wrong till he realised he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He phoned us to get a fuel drain and it was then when he informed us: "I cannot believe that I didn't realise that I put the wrong fuel in my car." He said that he had gotten virtually no rest the day before and that must have been precisely why.
