Finally we got a call from a young lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling station in Moss Edge and filled petrol in a diesel Honda rental car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was quite distressed apparently, crying "I simply can't believe that I have destroyed the vehicle!

Our Areas of Expertise :

Listed below are our top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Lancashire we are discovering more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree due to people not understanding the way to to make use of (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to one another on the automobile.

So, what is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? As the product is mostly ionised water, it's like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Any time you get in this predicament do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination company. Our experts have the practical competence and experience to get you back on your way quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important matter to address in a vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel may well cause idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both circumstances very easily.

Be aware however that if the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated near to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}
