Our Services:

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

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What to do in the event that you?ve poured Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? It is definitely devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly if you run the engine with Adblue in the diesel tank. Once the engine has been switched on the Adblue is going to be dragged into your fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, resulting in catastrophic and costly damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

In the case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And certainly be careful not to start up the vehicle - not even to shift it from the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you will probably have to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually a serious matter to address in a car - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank can certainly lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out than water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both circumstances rather swiftly.

Be aware though that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel Newby - Newby Fuel Removal

I had a fantastic day fishing on the weekend and was feeling contented the next day as I set off to aid a young family who were on holiday in Newby. They'd stopped after inserting the wrong fuel in their Lexus, and were close to an hour away. I showed up at their car and smiled while I heard to the gal berating her man for being so daft. "Exactly how could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I wanted to clarify that this takes place regularly in Lancashire and that it is nothing to be concerned about, nevertheless he in spite of everything had an earful. I felt genuine sympathy for the guy. Anyway, I removed the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. As they drove off I shouted farewell and pondered on what her indoors would ask me in the event that I did the very same thing... I would under no circumstances hear the end of it!
