Our Services:

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue Contamination

How to handle it if you have poured Adblue into a Diesel tank? It is certainly devastating to your automobile's fuel system, especially in cases where you started the car with Adblue in your tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the Adblue will be dragged into your fuel lines and will quickly start to crystalise, bringing about disastrous and costly damage to your car's fuel system.

If in case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out asap. And most certainly be careful not to turn over the motor - not even to move it to a parking bay. If perhaps you did start the car you will in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important issue to handle in an automobile - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol can trigger idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both situations pretty quickly.

You should know though that as long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one is going to be totally water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

We have been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial properties in Cambridgeshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in an outbuilding, if we are able to reach it, we can drain it.
