Our Fields of Specialties: Services We Offer:

Listed here are the top services we provide to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

In Cambridgeshire we have identified a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by drivers not being totally sure the way to work with it (please note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

Call us if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to fix different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually an important issue to handle in an automobile - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water in your fuel will produce idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out properly, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both cases very quickly.

Remember however that if ever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will probably be totally wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a vehicle parking spot we are able to gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir at the back of your premises containing aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several domestic and business properties in Cambridgeshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some containers in a storage shed, if we can access it, we can drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Hinxton (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a full Cambridgeshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up your vehicle if you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at cost) to fill up your car or truck. They will take care of any of the normal problems which could go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
