Helping you get back on the road is our main goal.

AdBlue In Diesel

What you should do if you may have put Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? Adblue is actually harmful to your automobile's fuel system, especially any time you have had the engine running with Adblue in your diesel fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the Adblue will be squirted into the fuel lines and will swiftly start to crystalise, causing serious and expensive problems to your car's fuel system.

If perhaps you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And most definitely don't crank the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking spot. Assuming you did start the car you would likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally a significant issue to take care of in a car - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel tank can certainly result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both circumstances quite swiftly.

Remember however that if the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will be completely wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a vehicle parking spot we are able to gain access to the storage and remove the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}
