Services Our Company Offers:

Here are the top services we provide to our clients.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Lincolnshire we have found increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a result of motorists not knowing how to work with it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to each other on the car.

Well, what's the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? As the product is predominantly deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

If you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it immediately. And absolutely be careful not to start the engine - not even to shift it into a parking place. Assuming you did start the vehicle you may most likely have to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel will bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both cases pretty easily.

Keep in mind though that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one is going to be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir in the back of the garden with aged, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and commercial premises in Lincolnshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even some containers in a storage shed, providing we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Gelston (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a full Lincolnshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to refill your car if you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) and refill your car. They will be able to handle the typical troubles that could go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
