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

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Kent we have encountered a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly thanks to drivers not being aware of how to to make use of (take note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Because AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

Call us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to correct all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a serious issue to deal with in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel may lead to idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both situations rather simply.

Bear in mind that if ever the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a vehicle parking bay we can access the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank lying at the back of your premises full of out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial properties in Kent to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or even a number of drums in a shed, assuming that we are able to get to it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Canterbury (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a comprehensive Kent Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to re-fill your vehicle in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at cost) and fill your automobile. They can also handle the typical troubles that might go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Removal Canterbury - Canterbury Fuel Rescue

I appreciated a great evening hiking during my holiday and was feeling contented with myself the next working day as I set off to assist a young couple who were vacationing in Canterbury. They conked out after adding the wrong fuel in their Volvo, and the car was about an hour's drive away. I got there at their position and laughed to myself as I heard to the girl telling her spouse off for actually being so stupid. "Exactly how could you actually be able to fill the vehicle up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I wanted to explain that this happens all the time in Kent and that it is nothing to fret about, and yet he in spite of everything got an ear bashing by his missus. Poor guy. Anyway, I drained out all the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled it up with the right fuel. While they drove away I waved good-bye and wondered what my wife would tell me if I made the exact same blunder... I'd personally never ever live it down!

Recent Fuel Drains in Canterbury

Some examples:

I'm not excessively excited about running Sundays, and a while back was the same. I had only just departed the family after a superb lunch made by the wife, and I was on the way to assist a fellow after he had filled the incorrect petrol in his MG. He was stationed in Canterbury so I arrived on scene quickly. Just as I drove up at the vehicle and started work he explained to me "Praise the Lord! I foolishly had my attention on other stuff and did not grasp that I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Have I brought on any problems by driving it?" I said truth be told there shouldn't be harm and also that I'd personally remove the contaminated fuel as quickly as possible. It goes without saying that I drained the wrong fuel from the vehicle and put in the correct fuel, and thus one more content motorist was able to carry on with their travelling without fuss. The gentleman did not stop thanking me, and that is actually what tends to make operating on weekends in Kent just a tiny bit less painful for me!

Vehicle Misfuel Canterbury - Canterbury Wrong Fuel in Car

A customer working in Canterbury called us shortly after she had managed to get her misfueled vehicle to her office. She had filled petrol in her diesel Volvo and, like countless before her, thought that she would be able to just fill the tank with diesel and it'd run no problem. The car was coughing and then it died when she arrived at the entrance of her work. We immediately started on the fuel drain following her call and got it resolved within one hour whilst she was working. She came outside soon after and thanked us saying, "I'm really glad you fixed my vehicle."

Wrong Fuel Canterbury - Canterbury Wrong Fuel Drain

A gentleman phoned us from Canterbury to say he had piped petrol in to his diesel Mitsubishi. "Shocking! I can't believe I put petrol in my nice diesel car!" It took our engineer roughly fifty minutes to completely drain the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. He completely cleaned the fuel system and then put fresh fuel in the vehicle. The customer was delighted and it didn't cost him dealership prices to get the task properly performed.
