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

AdBlue Contamination

All over West Lothian we are finding a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to some extent stemming from drivers not understanding how to to make use of (important: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to one another on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained at once. And certainly don't switch on the engine - not even to shift it into a parking spot. In case you have started the vehicle you would probably have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a significant matter to address in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel can trigger idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of properly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain than water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both circumstances rather quickly.

Remember though that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a car or truck parking spot we can reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}
