Here are the top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

In Bedfordshire we are finding a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree due to people not being totally sure how to to make use of (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to each other on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained right away. And of course do not crank the motor - not even to relocate it into a parking area. In the instance that you have started the car you will most likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant situation to handle in a car - especially in modern common-rail engines. Having water in the diesel or petrol may trigger idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both situations very expediently.

Remember though that whenever the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will be completely wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored near to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to access the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}
