Our Areas of Expertise:

Do you or your drivers frequently misfuel your car? We can fix any associated issues.

AdBlue In Diesel

What you can do in case you?ve put Adblue in your Diesel tank? AdBlue is a liquid made out of a mix of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%).It can be devastating to your car's fuel system, especially any time you run the engine with Adblue in your diesel tank. Once the engine has been switched on the Adblue will be dragged into the fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, resulting in devastating and expensive problems to your automobile's fuel system.

Assuming you put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it right away. And certainly never switch on the engine - not even to maneuver it into a parking spot. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you may in all likelihood have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a significant condition to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel will likely cause idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not remedied properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both situations pretty easily.

Remember though that so long as the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will likely be wholly wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to an automobile parking bay we are able to access the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}
