Services We Deliver:

Listed below are our top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Gloucestershire we have seen a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly stemming from drivers not being aware of how to to make use of (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to one another on the automobile.

Now, what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel car? As AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If you get in this position don?t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our experts have the specialised expertise and working experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be a significant issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank may contribute to idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both cases rather expediently.

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

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored close to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}
