Listed here are the top services we give to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Bedfordshire we are finding a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a consequence of people not knowing the way to to make use of (be aware: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to each other on the car.

So, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Since the product is mainly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

In the case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it at once. And most definitely never start the car - not even to move it off the pump. Assuming you did start the vehicle you would very likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a significant situation to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel is likely to contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both circumstances quite swiftly.

Keep in mind though that so long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one is going to be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to gain access to the storage and drain out the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}
