Below are the top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Flintshire we have seen more and more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partially a result of people being unsure of how to use it (note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to each other on the car.

Well, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out asap. And absolutely never start up the engine - not even to maneuver it into a parking spot. In the event that you have started the car you would almost certainly have to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important matter to handle in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel can contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both situations rather easily.

Keep in mind however that so long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to an automobile parking spot we can access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container lying at the rear of the garden containing old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and business premises in Flintshire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or even a few containers in an outbuilding, as long as we can reach it, we are able to empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Leeswood (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete Flintshire Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill the car any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) and refill your car. They are also able to handle any of the normal issues which can accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Leeswood - Leeswood Fuel Removal

A man had stopped near a road in Leeswood. His Skoda engine had ceased running and he had no clue what was awry until he realised he had put unleaded in his diesel car. He called us to request a fuel drain and it was then when he informed us: "I can not believe that I did not detect that I had put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had got very little rest the evening before and that must have been the key reason why.
