Our Services:

Here are the top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Cambridgeshire we are finding increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partly thanks to drivers being unsure of the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to each other on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Because AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained at once. And most definitely be careful not to switch on the motor - not even to move it into a parking bay. If perhaps you did start the car you will likely need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be an important matter to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol can cause idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with properly, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both situations quite expediently.

Remember however that as long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a car parking bay we can reach the storage and remove the fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}
