Our Services:

We are ready to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Lancashire we have encountered a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is in part due to motorists not knowing the way to use it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to one another on the car.

So, what's the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because the product is mostly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you end up in this position don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination company. Our technicians have got the technical knowledge and working experience to get you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important matter to take care of in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can certainly lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both cases quite simply.

Take note that if ever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one is going to be wholly wet and ineffective.
