Our Fields of Specialties:

Listed here are the top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

What you should do in the event that you?ve poured Adblue into a Diesel tank? Adblue is definitely harmful to your car's fuel system, particularly if you have had the engine running with Adblue in the fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been switched on the Adblue will likely be injected into your fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, causing catastrophic and expensive harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

In case you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And definitely be careful not to crank the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking place. In cases where you did start the vehicle you will probably have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important situation to take care of in an automobile - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in your petrol or diesel is likely to bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can solve both cases pretty swiftly.

Take note that so long as the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will probably be wholly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked close to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

We have been called out to a number of domestic and commercial premises in Oxfordshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages.

Fuel Rescue Sandford-on-Thames - Sandford-on-Thames Vehicle Misfuel

I'd had a fantastic afternoon hiking during my off day and was feeling cheerful with myself the next morning as I set out to help a young couple on vacation in Sandford-on-Thames. They had pulled over after filling the wrong fuel into their MG, and they were close to an hour away. I got there at their car and smiled as I listened to the girl telling her man off for actually being so silly. "Exactly how could you even manage to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to explain that this takes place constantly in Oxfordshire and that it is nothing to be concerned about, however he yet still got an ear bashing by his missus. Poor lad. Anyways, I extracted the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave it some correct fuel. Watching them drive off I waved farewell and wondered what her indoors would do to me if I made the exact same mistake... I would personally never live it down!
