Our Areas of Competence :

Helping you get back on the road is our main goal.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Falkirk we have encountered an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of motorists not understanding how to work with it (pay attention: it's actually not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that the product is mostly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

In case you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it immediately. And of course don't start up the car - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. In case you have started the vehicle you may very likely have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a serious situation to take care of in an automobile - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel is going to bring about idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both circumstances very quickly.

Be aware that if the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will probably be wholly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored close to a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to reach the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir placed in the rear of your premises with aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and business premises in Falkirk to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous containers in a shed, as long as we can access it, we can certainly empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Falkirk (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a full Falkirk Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up your vehicle in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill up your car. They can also take care of the typical problems which can accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, as well as flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Falkirk - Falkirk Fuel Drain

I'd had a perfect day fishing on the weekend and felt delighted the following working day as I headed out to assist a new couple on vacation in Falkirk. They had broken down after adding petrol in their Renault, and the car was about half an hour's travel away. I arrived at their position and smiled while I listened to the woman berating her hubby for actually being so stupid. "Exactly how could you actually manage to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I wanted to explain that this kind of thing happens quite frequently in Falkirk and that it's really nothing to get worried about, and yet he in spite of everything had an earful. Unfortunate guy. Anyhow, I drained all the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. As they drove down the road I waved farewell and considered what her indoors would ask me if perhaps I made the same mistake... I'd personally never live it down!

Recent Fuel Drains in Falkirk

Just a few of the typical troubles we come across from many of our engineers in Falkirk:

It can't be nice being stranded in a car full of the wrong fuel in the middle of the street. Our last customer who put the wrong fuel in her car (Mercedes) in Falkirk had precisely that headache: "You probably know that I incorrectly put the wrong fuel in my car last week. I was so bothered about contaminating my fuel that I was besides myself. Nevertheless I shouldn't have concerned myself simply because you were exceptional in sorting the problem out."

A person phoned us from his Citroen where he had come to a halt on the bustling street. "I mistakenly put petrol in my diesel car and I shortly realised it several miles down the road!" Fortuitously we were in a position to have an technician out to him in a fairly quick time, taking into consideration the traffic, and he was shortly back behind the wheel.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Falkirk - Falkirk Vehicle Misfuel

A customer rang us from his home on a close in Falkirk. He said, "My car (a Mitsubishi) is not running and is generating dreadful sounds when I flip the key." He admitted that he put the wrong fuel in his diesel car but then thought he would remedy the problem by putting more Diesel on top. We were on scene quickly, did the fuel drain and filled it up once more with clean Diesel. He told us after that he would be sure to tell people not to fill up over the wrong fuel but to get it drained promptly.
