Contaminated Fuel Testing

Contaminated Fuel Testing in the United Kingdom

We are suppliers of different fuels and lubricants with an experience of over five decades. From supplying our products to the commercial sector and domestic users to providing other services such as waste fuel collection and contaminated fuel testing, we have established an impeccable repute nationwide.

Get Your Fuel Tested

Fuel testing is required to check the contamination of fuel. Idle fuel can get easily contaminated by some types of bacteria and fungi. The primary cause of this is water, such as rainwater or moisture in the air. The microbial growth either occurs on the storage tank walls or between the oil surface and the layer of water. These types of microbes do not need oxygen to survive, and this is why they can persist for months if the fuel is not decontaminated. We have been carrying out contaminated fuel testing for years, including testing of diesel contamination.

Contamination Through Misfuelling

If mistakenly your car has been filled with the wrong fuel, for instance, you have accidentally filled your diesel vehicle with petrol or vice versa, it needs to be removed from your engine and tank. This can be a costly mistake if you try to run your vehicle and if you do not treat it on time. This can seriously affect your ECU (Engineer Control Unit). No matter where you have made this mistake, whether within the city or on the highway, get in touch with us for an immediate solution.

Protect Your Engine

Dirty tankers, dirty storage tanks, and improper storage can all contaminate fuel. The engines of modern vehicles cannot tolerate contaminated fuel for long. Moreover, it may clog or wear out your fuel injectors, filters, and fuel pump. We will send our fuel fixers, who will first carry out fuel testing and remove the contaminated fuel from your engine. Our technicians will next flush the car’s fuel lines with 100 % clean fuel. This resets your engine, and your car can get back on the road again.

Watch Out for Symptoms of Contaminated Fuel

Fuel filters that get clogged frequently are the first indication of contaminated fuel. The filter’s job is to prevent particles of metal, sludge, or dirt from making their way to your vehicle’s engine. A clogged filter will put pressure on your fuel pump, which will eventually lead to its failure. In addition to this, the contaminated fuel will also affect your injectors which are intricately engineered. It will directly wear out the nozzles which are responsible for spraying fuel for effective combustion.

These will altogether affect your vehicle’s performance and reduce the life of your engine. Replacing all these parts will also cost you money. Save these unnecessary repairs and replacements by calling us to carry out contaminated fuel testing in time.
