Listed below are our top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Lincolnshire we have noticed progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a result of people not being aware of the right way to work with it (please note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? As AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it at once. And of course don't start the car - not even to maneuver it to a parking bay. In case you have started the vehicle you will very likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant condition to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol can potentially trigger idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both cases rather quickly.

Take note however that if the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured close to a vehicle parking spot we are able to reach the storage and remove the fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got a fuel container placed in the back of the garden containing out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of private and commercial premises in Lincolnshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a shed, providing we can reach it, we can drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Alvingham (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a complete Lincolnshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill the car any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at cost) and fill up your vehicle. They will fix any of the most common issues that may go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
