Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we give.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Wiltshire we are discovering more and more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to some extent stemming from drivers not being totally sure the right way to use it (remember: it's actually not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to one another on the car.

Now, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out at once. And certainly be careful not to start the car - not even to move it to a parking spot. In cases where you did start the car you will in all probability need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely an important matter to address in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel can easily result in idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both circumstances quite easily.

You should know however that any time the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container sitting at the back of your premises with aged, unusable or degraded 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 Wiltshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or even a few containers in a garage, if we are able to access it, we can empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Thornhill (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a complete Wiltshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to fill up your automobile if you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump prices) to fill up your vehicle. They will be able to handle any of the usual troubles which might go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
