Here are the top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Lincolnshire we are discovering a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent stemming from people being unsure of the way to use it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing as the product is primarily ionised water, it is just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out right away. And absolutely don't start up the motor - not even to move it into a parking bay. In the event that you did start the vehicle you would in all probability need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be an important issue to deal with in an automobile - especially in modern common-rail engines. Having water in fuel will often trigger idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both cases very swiftly.

You should know that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close to a car or truck parking bay we are able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Wrong Fuel in Car Bucklegate - Bucklegate Fuel Drain

I appreciated a wonderful day hiking during my day off and felt pleased with myself the following working day as I was en route to help a new couple on vacation in Bucklegate. They had broken down after adding petrol into their Land Rover, and they were approximately half an hour away. I turned up at their position and smiled to myself as I heard to the gal telling her partner off for actually being so silly. "Exactly how could you actually be able to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I tried to tell her that this situation takes place frequently in Lincolnshire and that it's absolutely nothing to get worried about, nonetheless he still got his ear bent. Poor boy. At any rate, I removed the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave them some appropriate fuel. Watching them drive off I waved so long and considered what her indoors would do to me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
