Services We Provide:

Here are the top services we provide to our clients.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Leicestershire we are identifying a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a result of motorists being unsure of the way to use it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to each other on the car.

Well, what's the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is mainly deionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

In case you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And certainly never crank the vehicle - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you will probably need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol will bring about idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both circumstances rather swiftly.

Be aware that whenever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will be totally wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to parking spot we are able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Have an old fuel container sitting in the rear of the garden containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial premises in Leicestershire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps several drums in a garage, assuming that we can get to it, we can certainly empty it.
