Our Areas of Competency :

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Kent we are identifying an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partly thanks to drivers not knowing how to to make use of (be aware: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to one another on the car.

Now, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it at once. And most definitely do not turn over the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking bay. Assuming you did start the car you may almost certainly have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, can be a serious situation to handle in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel can certainly bring about idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both situations very expediently.

You should know however that any time the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one is going to be totally water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to parking bay we are able to access the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container laying at the back of the garden containing unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial premises in Kent to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some drums in an outbuilding, as long as we can get to it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Heaverham (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a comprehensive Kent Out of Fuel Service. We will come to refill your car if you are having difficulty on a 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 prices) and refill your automobile. They will fix the normal issues that could go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
