Our Services:

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we provide.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around North Yorkshire we are discovering progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent a result of drivers not being totally sure the way to to make use of (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and partly because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to each other on the automobile.

So, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily take care of every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your diesel or petrol may bring about idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both circumstances quite quickly.

Be aware however that if the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one is going to be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a car parking spot we will be able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}
