This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Fife we have found more and more cases of AdBlue contamination when a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent due to drivers not being aware of the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to each other on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it is just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

In the event that you end up in this predicament don?t fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination service. Our technicians have the specialised know-how and working experience to get you back on the road quickly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be an important situation to handle in a car - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in fuel will likely lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of fully, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both circumstances fairly expediently.

Keep in mind that if the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to reach the storage and remove the fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank at the rear of the garden with old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial properties in Fife for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a shed, provided that we can get to it, we can certainly drain it.

A couple of days ago a customer telephoned us right after his Skoda ground to a halt in the middle of a road in Ballingry, Lochore and Crosshill. He had mistakenly put petrol in the diesel motor and drove as far as the road before having to stop. It was yet early in the morning and our technician, who resides not far away, was with him in approximately fifteen minutes. We were able to drain the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel once again in to the vehicle. "Genuine thanks to you for your immediate response, especially at 5 a.m., I appreciate it."
