Our Fields of Specialties:

Do you or your drivers often misfuel your vehicle? We can solve any associated issues.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Lincolnshire we are noticing progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partly due to people not knowing how to to make use of (take note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what's the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it at once. And certainly be careful not to start the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking spot. If you have started the car you may in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, can be an important matter to address in a car - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in your diesel or petrol can contribute to idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both cases rather expediently.

You should know that if the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one is going to be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we can access the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container sitting at the back of your garden full of old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and industrial properties in Lincolnshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in a storage shed, if we can reach it, we can certainly empty it.

Run out of fuel in Newtoft (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a comprehensive Lincolnshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to re-fill your vehicle in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill up your car.
