Below are our top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Derbyshire we are encountering more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly caused by motorists not being aware of the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to one another on the car.

Now, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

Should you find yourself in this scenario don?t fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our technicians have got the specialised skills and experience to get you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a significant issue to handle in an automobile - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel can potentially trigger idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both situations quite easily.

Take note however that if ever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will probably be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated 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 close enough to a car parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Fuel Drain Wash - Wash Wrong Fuel

I appreciated a wonderful evening fishing on my holiday and felt delighted the next day as I was on the way to assist a young couple who were away in Wash. They had conked out after putting diesel into their Volvo, and were about half an hour's drive away. I showed up at their car and smirked to myself as I listened to the lady telling her spouse off for actually being so silly. "Precisely how could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I wanted to tell her that this kind of thing happens regularly in Derbyshire and that it's nothing to stress about, nevertheless he still had his ear bent by his wife. Unfortunate lad. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave them some correct fuel. While watching them drive off I shouted good bye and wondered what my wife would say to me in the event that I did the same thing... I would personally never live it down!
