Services We Give:

Below are our top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Somerset we have seen increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partly as a result of drivers being unsure of the way to to make use of (important: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right near to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? As the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And of course don't turn over the vehicle - not even to maneuver it to a parking place. In the instance that you did start the car you would in all likelihood need to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be an important condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank can cause idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both circumstances quite swiftly.

Keep in mind however that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured close to a car parking bay we can gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}
