Provided Services: Our Specialties:

Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we provide.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Lancashire we are finding a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partly thanks to motorists being unsure of the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to each other on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Since the product is primarily deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

Phone us if it turns out you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to fix every type of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious situation to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your diesel or petrol may lead to idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not remedied effectively, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of than water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both situations quite expediently.

Be aware though that if the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one is going to be completely wet and unusable.

We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}
