Offered Services: Our Specialties:

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue Contamination

All over Devon we are noticing progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a degree due to drivers being unsure of how to work with it (note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to each other on the car.

So, precisely what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? As AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And certainly be careful not to start up the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking place. In the event that you have started the car you would almost certainly have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a significant issue to deal with in an automobile - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol can cause idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove than water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both situations fairly easily.

You should know however that if ever the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a car or truck parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}
