Our Areas of Experience :

Helping you get back on the road is our primary goal.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Aberdeenshire we have encountered a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of motorists being unsure of how to work with it (remember: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to each other on the vehicle.

So, what's the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out at once. And absolutely never turn over the vehicle - not even to shift it off of the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you will most likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a significant issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel will often result in idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both situations fairly expediently.

You should know though that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to an automobile parking spot we can reach the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Petrol in Diesel Oldmeldrum - Oldmeldrum Wrong Fuel

This was exactly the graveyard shift. It was close to 2:30am and hardly anyone was stirring. It had become pretty uneventful so far, and me and John were relaxing reading a number of old articles. That was a rare peaceful time in Aberdeenshire. Actually it was indeed so calm that the instant the telephone inevitably rang I leaped! The customer on the phone stated: "I have just completed my overnight shift and incredibly put the wrong fuel in my Lexus by mistake". We got him to let us know where exactly the vehicle was and we headed out, arriving in Oldmeldrum less than 30 minutes later. The fuel was extracted from the car and he said thanks for coming so promptly. As we were coming back home we found two young ladies at the side of the highway who seemed like they had a flat. Obviously we stopped to change it, much to their delight.
