Our Fields of Specialties:

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to handle it if you have poured Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a chemical composed of a mix of high-purity urea and deionized water (67.5%).Adblue is definitely damaging to your automobile's fuel system, especially if you run the engine with Adblue in your diesel fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been started up the Adblue will be squirted into the fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, leading to disastrous and costly damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

If you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out right away. And certainly take care not to switch on the engine - not even to move it to a parking spot. If you have started the car you will probably need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant situation to deal with in an automobile - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel is likely to contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both circumstances fairly expediently.

Bear in mind that whenever the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a vehicle parking spot we can access the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}
