Our Areas of Competency :

Listed here are the top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Lincolnshire we are finding a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly as a result of motorists not being aware of the way to use it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Well, what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Since the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Whenever you get in this predicament do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination service. Our engineers possess the specialised know-how and experience to get you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually a serious situation to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank may well contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both circumstances fairly swiftly.

Take note however that if the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will likely be wholly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel.

Fuel Rescue Raithby - Raithby Wrong Fuel

I had enjoyed a wonderful evening golfing during my day off and was feeling contented the following morning as I was on the way to help a young family who were on vacation in Raithby. They had broken down after putting the wrong fuel in their Volvo, and the car was roughly half an hour away. I emerged at their car and smiled to myself while I heard to the lady berating her hubby for actually being so foolish. "Exactly how could you possibly find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I wanted to explain that this takes place on daily basis in Lincolnshire and that it is nothing at all to worry about, nevertheless he all the same had his ear bent by his wife. I felt genuine sympathy for the guy. In any case, I extracted the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave it some proper fuel. As they drove off I waved bon voyage and pondered on what my missus would ask me if I made the very same mistake... I would never ever live it down!
