Our Areas of Competency :

Here are the top services we provide to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Aberdeenshire we have identified progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a consequence of people not being totally sure how to use it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because the product is mostly deionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained asap. And certainly don't start up the vehicle - not even to maneuver it to a parking area. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you would likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely an important matter to address in an automobile - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in your diesel or petrol may well lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both circumstances fairly swiftly.

You should know that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to parking bay we can gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank lying in the rear of your garden containing unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and commercial premises in Aberdeenshire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few drums in a shed, if we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Fraserburgh (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a complete Aberdeenshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to refill your automobile in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill up your automobile. They are also able to handle the typical issues that could go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
