Our Services:

Here are the top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Kent we are noticing progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part a result of people not being totally sure the way to use it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it immediately. And most definitely never start the vehicle - not even to move it off the pump. If you did start the vehicle you would very likely have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually a significant condition to deal with in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank may well bring about idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both situations quite easily.

Bear in mind though that if ever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel container placed at the rear of the garden full of unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many domestic and business properties in Kent to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or even several drums in a shed, assuming that we can reach it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Chartham (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a complete Kent Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to refill your car any time you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill your car or truck. They will take care of any of the common problems which can go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Chartham - Chartham Wrong Fuel Doctor

A couple of days ago a gentleman telephoned us when his Smart cut out on a road in Chartham. He had by accident put petrol in the diesel motor and drove to the road before having to halt. It was early in the day and our engineer, who resides not far away, got to him in about 20 minutes. We were able to remove the wrong fuel and put clean diesel yet again in the car. "Thank you for your prompt response, especially at 5 a.m., I genuinely am grateful for it."
