Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we provide.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Bristol we are finding increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mainly a result of motorists being unsure of the right way to use it (important: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to each other on the automobile.

So, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as the product is primarily deionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And most definitely be careful not to crank the vehicle - not even to shift it to a parking spot. In case you have started the car you may likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally a significant issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in your diesel or petrol can potentially bring about idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both situations very swiftly.

Bear in mind however that any time the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one is going to be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a car parking spot we can reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

We have been called out to many domestic and industrial premises in Bristol to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages.
