This is what we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Gloucestershire we have identified a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mostly thanks to people not being aware of how to work with it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to one another on the automobile.

Well, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained right away. And obviously be careful not to switch on the car - not even to shift it from the pump. If perhaps you did start the car you may almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious issue to address in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol can easily produce idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out fully, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both cases rather simply.

Remember that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored near to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

We've been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial premises in Gloucestershire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages.
