Our Areas of Competence :

Listed here are the top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

In North Yorkshire we have discovered a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent stemming from motorists being unsure of the way to to make use of (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Since the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Call us if it turns out you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can fix all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant matter to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your petrol or diesel may well contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove than water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both circumstances quite swiftly.

You should know though that any time the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a vehicle parking bay we can access the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank laying in the rear of your garden full of out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several domestic and business properties in North Yorkshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or even a few containers in a shed, assuming that we are able to get to it, we are able to empty it.

We can come to re-fill the car in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home.
