Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Scottish Borders we have found progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree due to drivers not being totally sure the way to work with it (important: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Any time you find yourself in this situation do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination company. Our experts have got the technical knowledge and experience to get you back on the road promptly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly a significant condition to handle in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank may lead to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both situations pretty swiftly.

Take note though that if the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will be wholly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated close to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage and drain out the fuel.

Wrong Fuel Assist Peebles - Peebles Wrong Fuel in Car

I had enjoyed a wonderful afternoon fishing during my day off and felt pleased with myself the following morning as I set out to help a young family away in Peebles. They conked out after putting diesel in their Chevrolet, and they were roughly half an hour's drive away. I got there at their position and smiled to myself as I heard to the woman telling her man off for actually being so silly. "Just how could you even manage to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I tried to clarify that this kind of thing goes on constantly in Scottish Borders and that it is absolutely nothing to get worried about, nevertheless he yet still got an earful. Unlucky chap. Anyways, I drained all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled it up with the proper fuel. While they drove off I mouthed good bye and considered what her indoors would tell me in the event that I made the very same blunder... I'd never ever hear the end of it!
