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

AdBlue Contamination

All over Greater London we have noticed increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree a result of drivers not being aware of how to use it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel car? As the product is mostly deionised water, it is like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If in case you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out asap. And obviously never start up the engine - not even to relocate it away from the pump. If perhaps you have started the car you would in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually a significant situation to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel is likely to bring about idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with properly, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both circumstances rather expediently.

Keep in mind though that as long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will likely be completely wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a car or truck parking bay we can access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

We've been called out to many private and business premises in Greater London to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages.

Vehicle Misfuel Barnet - Barnet Wrong Fuel in Car

I appreciated a fantastic day golfing on my off day and felt satisfied with myself the following day as I set off to assist a young couple who were vacationing in Barnet. They had stopped after adding petrol into their Hyundai, and they were approximately an hour's drive away. I emerged at their car and smirked as I listened to the gal berating her man for turning out to be so foolish. "Precisely how could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I wanted to clarify that this problem takes place frequently in Greater London and that it's nothing at all to worry about, nonetheless he yet still had an ear bashing by his better half. Unfortunate lad. At any rate, I removed the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the correct fuel. As they drove away I mouthed farewell and thought about what her indoors would tell me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I'd never ever hear the end of it!
