Listed below are our top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Oxfordshire we have seen progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly due to people being unsure of the right way to to make use of (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

So, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And obviously take care not to crank the engine - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. If you have started the vehicle you would very likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious condition to deal with in an automobile - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank will likely lead to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out than water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both circumstances quite simply.

Take note though that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one is going to be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel Freeland - Freeland Vehicle Misfuel

I had a terrific day cycling during my off day and felt pleased the next morning as I was on the way to help a new couple holidaying in Freeland. They broken down after filling the wrong fuel in their SEAT, and the car was roughly an hour's travel away. I got there at their car and laughed to myself while I heard to the wife chastising her man for being so foolish. "How could you possibly find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this comes to pass on daily basis in Oxfordshire and that it's nothing to worry about, nonetheless he still had an earful by his missus. I felt genuine sympathy for the guy. Anyways, I cleaned up and removed all of the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. While watching them drive down the road I waved good bye and wondered what my wife would do to me in the event that I made the same error... I'd never ever hear the end of it!
