Our Services:

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Tyne and Wear we have seen a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to drivers not understanding the right way to to make use of (note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to one another on the car.

Well, what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since the product is primarily ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

Call us if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to handle all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be an important matter to handle in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank can easily lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed properly, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain than water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both situations rather simply.

You should know however that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will be totally water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a car or truck parking bay we can reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

We have been called out to many privately owned and industrial premises in Tyne and Wear to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages.
