Our Areas of Expertise :

Below are our top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to handle it in case you may have put Adblue in a Diesel tank? AdBlue is a liquid that?s made of a blend of high-purity deionized water (67.5%) and urea.It can be disastrous to your car's fuel system, especially if you have had the engine running with Adblue in the tank. Once the engine has been started up the Adblue will undoubtedly be dragged into the fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, causing catastrophic and costly damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

Give us a call in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily fix all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, can be an important matter to address in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel will likely contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both situations very swiftly.

Take note that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

As long as the boat is either on land, or moored close to parking spot we will be able to reach the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

This was what we call an unsociable time to be on the road. It was close to 3am and noone was stirring. It was quite uneventful until now, and me and Ray were loafing about looking through several old articles. That was a rare tranquil time in Lincolnshire. It was indeed so peaceful that when my mobile inevitably rang I leaped! The customer said: "I completed my night shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in a diesel Vauxhall by mistake". I told him to let us know where he was located and we headed out, getting to him in Winthorpe not as much as an hour later. The contaminated fuel was cleared from the car and he thanked us profusely for showing up so fast. As we were heading back home we found two women at the side of the street who seemed to have a flat. So we stopped to change it, to their elation.
