Services We Offer:

Below are our top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Suffolk we have noticed a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partially due to drivers not understanding the way to to make use of (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to one another on the car.

So, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely never start up the engine - not even to move it to a parking place. Assuming you did start the vehicle you may likely need to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally an important issue to deal with in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your fuel can trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both circumstances very simply.

You should know though that if the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will probably be totally water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a car parking bay we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

We've been called out to quite a few private and business properties in Suffolk to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages.
