Our Fields of Specialties:

Here are the top services we provide to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Lincolnshire we have discovered an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially stemming from people not being aware of the way to use it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to one another on the vehicle.

So, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

In case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out asap. And most certainly take care not to crank the motor - not even to move it to a parking place. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you would in all probability have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious condition to address in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel will lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both situations very swiftly.

Be aware that so long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will probably be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored close to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir sitting in the back of your garden containing old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many private and commercial premises in Lincolnshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even some drums in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Ashby Hill (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a full Lincolnshire Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill the car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) and fill up your vehicle. They are also able to take care of the normal troubles which may come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
