Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we give.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Kent we have seen a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to motorists not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (remember: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to each other on the automobile.

Well, what's the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And of course be careful not to turn over the engine - not even to maneuver it into a parking spot. If perhaps you did start the car you will almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant matter to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel is going to bring about idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both situations fairly expediently.

Bear in mind though that in the event that the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will be completely wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a vehicle parking spot we can access the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir laying at the rear of the garden containing unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and business premises in Kent to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a shed, assuming that we can get to it, we are able to drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Heaverham (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a full Kent Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to refill the car if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump prices) and fill up your car or truck. They will be able to deal with the typical issues which may come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
