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

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Oxfordshire we have discovered an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mostly caused by motorists being unsure of how to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? As the product is mostly deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And of course don't start the vehicle - not even to shift it into a parking place. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you would probably have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important matter to deal with in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Having water in diesel or petrol will contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both cases fairly swiftly.

Take note though that if the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated close to parking spot we are able to access the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}
