Do you or your employees frequently misfuel your car? We can solve any connected issues.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Staffordshire we are encountering an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly due to drivers not being totally sure the way to use it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to one another on the automobile.

Well, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing as the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it immediately. And most certainly take care not to start up the engine - not even to relocate it off of the pump. If you did start the car you will likely need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious matter to address in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol is going to lead to idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both situations very simply.

Take note that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will likely be totally wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a car or truck parking bay we can gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir placed in the back of your garden containing old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial properties in Staffordshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in a shed, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Rickerscote (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a complete Staffordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to fill up your vehicle in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill your car. They will handle any of the normal issues that may come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Rickerscote - Rickerscote Wrong Fuel Doctor

A lady working in Rickerscote called us shortly after she tried to get her misfueled vehicle to work. She had filled unleaded in her diesel Dacia and, like many people before her, thought that she could just top up her tank with diesel and it would run fine. The vehicle was chugging and then it stopped when she got to the the front of her work. We immediately started on the fuel drain after she called and got it fixed within an hour or so whilst she was at the office. She came out when we finished and thanked us saying, "I'm very glad you repaired my vehicle."
