Services We Provide:

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we provide.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Oxfordshire we have found increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mainly caused by motorists not knowing the right way to work with it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to one another on the automobile.

Well, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is predominantly ionised water, it's like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

Call us in the event that you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can fix every type of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be an important situation to deal with in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel is likely to trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both situations pretty expediently.

You should know however that so long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will be totally water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to parking spot we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel tank lying at the rear of your garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous domestic and commercial premises in Oxfordshire to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous drums in a storage shed, if we can access it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Bicester (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a comprehensive Oxfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to fill up your car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at cost) and refill your car or truck. They can also deal with the normal problems which may go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, as well as dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Bicester - Bicester Vehicle Misfuel

A couple weeks ago a young man called us just after his Mazda died in the middle of a street in Bicester. He had mistakenly put petrol in his diesel vehicle and managed to get to the street before having to pull over. It was yet in the early hours of the day and our engineer, who stays nearby, got to him in approximately 10 minutes. We managed to drain the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel once again into the vehicle. "Many kudos to you for your timely response, and in particular at 5 a.m., I appreciate it."
