Our Fields of Specialties:

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Fife we have identified progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is in part thanks to motorists being unsure of the right way to work with it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to each other on the car.

Well, exactly what is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing as the product is mainly ionised water, it is like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely be careful not to start the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking area. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you may likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question an important issue to address in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in the petrol or diesel is going to contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both situations fairly simply.

Be aware however that if ever the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to an automobile parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir laying in the back of your premises containing unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial properties in Fife for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of containers in a storage shed, assuming that we can reach it, we can empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Tayport (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a complete Fife Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to re-fill your vehicle any time you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) and refill your vehicle. They will take care of the common problems that can go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
