Below are the top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Lincolnshire we are discovering a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree caused by drivers not being aware of the way to work with it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to one another on the car.

So, exactly what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Since the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call if you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to handle different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be a serious matter to deal with in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water inside your petrol or diesel can potentially cause idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of than water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both cases pretty simply.

You should know however that if ever the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will be completely wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored near to a vehicle parking bay we are able to gain access to the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel.

Wrong Fuel in Car Fotherby - Fotherby Wrong Fuel in Car

I had a terrific evening fishing on my holiday and felt cheerful with myself the next working day as I set out to aid a new couple who were on vacation in Fotherby. They conked out after filling diesel in their Volkswagen, and were roughly an hour's drive away. I got there at their position and smiled as I heard to the lady telling her spouse off for actually being so silly. "How could you possibly manage to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I wanted to tell her that this occurs everyday in Lincolnshire and that it's in reality absolutely nothing to get worried about, nevertheless he yet still got an earful. Unlucky lad. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and gave it some proper fuel. Watching them drive away I waved bon voyage and thought about what her indoors would tell me if perhaps I made the same mistake... I would never hear the end of it!
