Below are the top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Cambridgeshire we have noticed an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a result of drivers not being totally sure the right way to use it (be aware: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to each other on the car.

So, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it at once. And definitely don't start up the motor - not even to shift it off the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you will most likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious condition to deal with in an automobile - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel tank may well cause idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both cases pretty swiftly.

Bear in mind that as long as the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will likely be completely wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}
