This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue Contamination

In Nottinghamshire we have encountered a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to some extent stemming from drivers not understanding the way to to make use of (remember: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Since the product is primarily ionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And obviously be careful not to turn over the motor - not even to shift it into a parking spot. In cases where you did start the car you would probably have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in the diesel or petrol can certainly trigger idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of fully, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both situations pretty easily.

Take note though that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will probably be wholly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a car parking bay we can reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel reservoir lying at the rear of your garden containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many private and business premises in Nottinghamshire to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several drums in a storage shed, if we are able to get to it, we can certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Nottingham (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a comprehensive Nottinghamshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to fill up your automobile if you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) to fill your car or truck. They are also able to handle any of the common issues that may go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Nottingham - Nottingham Wrong Fuel Drain

A gentleman had conked out near a street in Nottingham. His Nissan engine had ceased operating and he had no idea what was awry right up until he noticed he had put petrol in his diesel car. He contacted us to get a fuel drain and it was then when he said to us: "I cannot believe that I did not know that I put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had gotten no sleep the day before and that could have been precisely why.
