Our Areas of Experience :

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Torfaen we are finding increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of drivers not knowing the right way to use it (pay attention: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to one another on the car.

Well, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it immediately. And most certainly never turn over the engine - not even to shift it away from the pump. Assuming you did start the car you will likely have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious condition to deal with in a car - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel will likely produce idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both situations very easily.

Take note however that if the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one is going to be completely wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured near to an automobile parking spot we should be able to access the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel container sitting at the rear of the garden containing unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and commercial properties in Torfaen to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some containers in a storage shed, provided that we are able to access it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Blaenavon (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a full Torfaen Out of Fuel Service. We can help to refill your automobile any time you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump prices) to fill your vehicle. They will handle any of the normal troubles which might go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Fuel Removal Blaenavon - Blaenavon Petrol in Diesel

I'd had a great afternoon golfing on my off day and felt delighted with myself the next working day as I set off to help a young couple who were holidaying in Blaenavon. They'd stopped after inserting diesel in their Toyota, and they were roughly an hour away. I showed up at their position and laughed to myself as I listened to the lady telling her man off for actually being so foolish. "Exactly how could you actually be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I tried to clarify that this happens frequently in Torfaen and that it is nothing at all to get worried about, even so he still got an earful by his better half. Unfortunate chap. Anyhow, I extracted all of the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the correct fuel. Watching them drive off I shouted bon voyage and wondered what her indoors would say to me in the event that I did the same thing... I'd personally never live it down!
