Our Areas of Specialties: Services We Provide:

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

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Wiltshire we are finding progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partially stemming from drivers not being aware of the right way to to make use of (important: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to each other on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it asap. And certainly take care not to crank the car - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In cases where you did start the car you would in all probability have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually a serious issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol will trigger idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out fully, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both circumstances very quickly.

Take note however that if ever the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be totally wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a car parking bay we can access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

We have been called out to several domestic and commercial properties in Wiltshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages.

Wrong Fuel Knockdown - Knockdown Fuel Removal

I appreciated a great day fishing during my afternoon off and felt contented the following morning as I set off to aid a new family who were holidaying in Knockdown. They'd stopped after putting the wrong fuel into their BMW, and the car was approximately an hour's drive away. I got there at their position and smirked while I heard to the gal telling off her partner for actually being so stupid. "Just how could you possibly be able to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this problem comes to pass quite frequently in Wiltshire and that it is nothing at all to stress about, nonetheless he yet still had an earful by his better half. Unlucky lad. Anyways, I cleaned up and removed all of the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the proper fuel.
