Services Our Company Offers:

Below are the top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Somerset we are noticing a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly stemming from drivers not knowing the way to use it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to each other on the automobile.

So, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that the product is mainly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us if you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to handle all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a significant condition to deal with in an automobile - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank can certainly lead to idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain than water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both situations rather swiftly.

Take note that if ever the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

We've been called out to several domestic and commercial properties in Somerset to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps some drums in an outbuilding, provided that we can reach it, we can certainly empty it for you.
