Services We Give:

Below are our top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Shropshire we are noticing more and more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly due to people not being totally sure the right way to work with it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to one another on the automobile.

Now, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

Give us a call if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will take care of different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious condition to address in an automobile - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel is going to contribute to idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both situations pretty easily.

Remember though that whenever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to an automobile parking bay we can gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel tank sitting 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 quite a few privately owned and business properties in Shropshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a number of containers in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to reach it, we are able to empty it.

Out of fuel in Hungerford (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a comprehensive Shropshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to re-fill your vehicle if you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home.

Vehicle Misfuel Hungerford - Hungerford Vehicle Misfuel

This was certainly what is called an unsociable hour to be awake. It was about dawn and almost noone was stirring. It was rather uneventful so far, and Brian and I were sitting browsing a couple of old papers. That was an unusual quiet moment in Shropshire. Actually it was in fact so calm that the moment the telephone eventually rang I jumped! The customer said: "I just finished my overnight shift and incredibly poured the wrong fuel in the diesel MG in error". We asked him to let us know where he was situated and we left, getting to him in Hungerford under half an hour later. The fuel was taken out from the engine. He said thank you for coming so quickly. While we were returning home we found two young ladies at the side of the street who seemed like they suffered a flat. Obviously we got out and helped them change it, to their delight.

Wrong Fuel Hungerford - Hungerford Wrong Fuel Drain

A person phoned us from his residence on a road in Hungerford. He exclaimed, "My car (a Land Rover) is not running and is generating very bad noises when I flip the key." He said that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle however believed he would fix the problem by putting further Diesel on top. We arrived quickly, carried out the fuel drain and filled it up once more with untainted Diesel. He told us after that he'd be sure to tell people not to fill up on top of the incorrect fuel but to have it drained promptly.
