Our Areas of Experience :

Do you or your drivers frequently misfuel your car? We can fix any associated issues.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Cornwall we are encountering an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partly a result of motorists not knowing the way to use it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as the product is mostly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

Phone us if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to fix different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is definitely an important issue to handle in an automobile - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol can potentially result in idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both situations pretty easily.

Bear in mind though that any time the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will likely be totally wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored near to an automobile parking bay we should be able to access the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir laying in the back of the garden with unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and industrial properties in Cornwall to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few drums in a garage, provided that we can get to it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Launceston (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a comprehensive Cornwall Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to re-fill your vehicle in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at cost) and fill up your car. They can also deal with the common troubles that could accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as dead batteries because of over-cranking.


Fuel Drain Launceston - Launceston Fuel Drain

I had a perfect afternoon golfing during my day off and felt delighted the following day as I headed out to aid a new couple who were on vacation in Launceston. They'd broken down after putting diesel into their SEAT, and were around an hour's travel away. I arrived at their position and laughed as I listened to the girl chastising her hubby for turning out to be so daft. "Just how could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I wanted to explain that this occurs quite frequently in Cornwall and that it's absolutely nothing to stress about, but he in spite of everything had his ear bent. Poor guy. Anyhow, I extracted the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. While watching them drive down the road I shouted good-bye and wondered what my missus would do to me if I made the very same blunder... I would never live it down!

They are properly trained on the most up-to-date cars and carry all pertinent certificates.

A driver from Launceston with her children in her diesel MINI had put £42 of petrol at the Tesco service station. She phoned us sobbing and very upset as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel before and did not know what would happen to her car because of it. We reassured her that all would be okay and that she would be back ready to go in no time at all. When we arrived on scene she was visible distressed but as our engineer got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down since she discovered that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't ruined.

The customer was completely satisfied and it didn't cost him dealership prices to get the task professionally performed.
