Here are the top services we provide to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In County Derry we are discovering increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is in part due to motorists not knowing the right way to work with it (take note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to each other on the automobile.

So, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Contact us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to fix different types of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant situation to handle in a car - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water in fuel will likely contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of than water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both cases fairly easily.

Bear in mind that as long as the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to parking spot we will be able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}
