These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue Contamination

All around Oxfordshire we have noticed an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly caused by people being unsure of the right way to use it (remember: it's actually not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to one another on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing as the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And obviously take care not to turn over the car - not even to move it off the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you may probably need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious situation to deal with in an automobile - especially in modern common-rail engines. Having water inside your diesel or petrol will likely contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove than water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both circumstances very easily.

Keep in mind however that as long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a vehicle parking spot we can access the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir in the back of your garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial properties in Oxfordshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or even numerous containers in an outbuilding, if we can get to it, we can drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Marcham (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a complete Oxfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to re-fill the car any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill up your car. They are also able to take care of any of the most common problems which might accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.
