Services We Give:

Do you or your drivers frequently misfuel your vehicle? We can solve any connected problems.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Kent we have noticed an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly as a consequence of drivers not understanding the right way to work with it (remember: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partly because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

If in case you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And absolutely don't turn over the vehicle - not even to shift it from the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you may most likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, can be a serious situation to handle in a vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank will often bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both circumstances rather quickly.

You should know however that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to an automobile parking bay we are able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel reservoir laying in the rear of the garden containing old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and business properties in Kent for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps some drums in a garage, as long as we are able to get to it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Cold Harbour (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a complete Kent Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to re-fill your car in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and refill the car. They will handle the normal problems which might go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Fuel Removal Cold Harbour - Cold Harbour Wrong Fuel Doctor

A man had stopped just near a street in Cold Harbour. His Dacia car had ceased running and he had no idea what was awry until he realised he put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He called us to get a fuel drain and that's when he explained to us: "I cannot believe that I didn't detect that I put the incorrect fuel in my car." He claimed that he had got no rest the night before and that could have been the reason why.
