Provided Services: Our Specialties:

Here are the top services we provide to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Scottish Borders we have identified an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree as a consequence of people not being aware of how to work with it (important: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is mainly ionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Whenever you discover youself to be in this scenario do not panic! Contact us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination company. Our technicians possess the practical competence and working experience to get you back on the road promptly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a serious condition to handle in an automobile - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel tank can certainly cause idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed correctly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both circumstances very simply.

Bear in mind however that if ever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will be thoroughly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to an automobile parking bay we can reach the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}
