Our Areas of Competence :
Listed below are our top services we offer to our customers.
AdBlue Contamination
All around Warwickshire we are finding an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a result of people not knowing the right way to work with it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right adjacent to one another on the automobile.
Now, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.
If in case you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it right away. And most definitely take care not to start up the vehicle - not even to relocate it away from the pump. If perhaps you did start the car you would in all probability have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a significant issue to handle in an automobile - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel tank may well trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both circumstances rather expediently.
Keep in mind however that in the event that the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and ineffective.
Marine Fuel Drains
If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}
