Here are the top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Greater Manchester we are encountering more and more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a result of people not being aware of the way to to make use of (note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to each other on the vehicle.

So, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Since the product is mainly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

In the event that you put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And most definitely take care not to crank the engine - not even to shift it off of the pump. If you did start the vehicle you may most likely need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious matter to deal with in an automobile - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Having water in your petrol or diesel can easily produce idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both circumstances rather easily.

You should know that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will probably be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated close to an automobile parking bay we can access the tanks and remove the fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}
