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

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Lincolnshire we have seen more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partly a result of motorists not being aware of the way to to make use of (important: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it's like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And definitely do not crank the motor - not even to maneuver it into a parking area. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you would in all probability need to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a significant issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel tank can cause idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both cases pretty simply.

Take note that in the event that the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will likely be wholly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a vehicle parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}
