Here are the top services we give to our clients.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Lincolnshire we have seen a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to some extent caused by drivers not understanding how to use it (note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to each other on the automobile.

So, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? As AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And obviously don't turn over the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking place. In case you have started the vehicle you would likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question an important situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel will often trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain as compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both situations fairly easily.

Bear in mind though that if the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured near to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got a fuel container sitting at the rear of your premises full of out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and business premises in Lincolnshire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of containers in a garage, as long as we can access it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Boultham (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a complete Lincolnshire Out of Fuel Service. We can help to fill up the car in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) and fill your car. They are also able to deal with any of the usual problems which might come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
