Services We Provide:

Do you or your drivers usually misfuel your vehicle? We can solve any related issues.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Herefordshire we are encountering increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a result of drivers not knowing the right way to to make use of (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it immediately. And most certainly take care not to turn over the car - not even to shift it away from the pump. In cases where you have started the car you would likely have to have the full fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important issue to handle in a car - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your diesel or petrol can easily trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both cases quite easily.

Bear in mind that any time the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a car or truck parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir laying in the rear of your garden containing old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many domestic and industrial properties in Herefordshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in a garage, providing we are able to get to it, we can drain it.

We can easily get out to fill up the car in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at cost) to fill your car or truck.
