Our Fields of Expertise: Services We Offer:
We are all set to take the wrong fuel work.
AdBlue In Diesel
In Kent we are encountering a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of people being unsure of the right way to to make use of (be aware: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to each other on the automobile.
So, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that the product is primarily ionised water, it's like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.
Any time you end up in this predicament do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination company. Our experts possess the practical competence and experience to have you back on your way quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant matter to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel can certainly cause idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out than water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both cases rather simply.
Keep in mind however that in the event that the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will likely be wholly water-logged and useless.
Boat Fuel Drains
If you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to reach the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

We've been called out to numerous privately owned and commercial properties in Kent for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

Listed below are opinions and good examples of contaminated fuel removal we've carried out in Littlestone-on-Sea:
I'm not necessarily very enthusiastic about doing work weekends, and the other day was the same. I had just left the wife and kids after a magnificent roast cooked for us by the missus, and I was on my way to help a fellow after he had filled the incorrect petrol in his MG. He was only in Littlestone-on-Sea hence it wouldn't be a long time before I reached him. As I arrived behind the car and got out he said to me "Thank the Almighty! I had my concentration on other stuff and failed to ascertain I have put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Is it possible I created any damage by driving it?" I revealed that generally there shouldn't be any kind of harm and that also I'd personally remove the contaminated fuel at once. Obviously I drained the fuel from the car and put in the correct fuel, and thus one more happy motorist had the ability to continue on their ride without the bother. The guy could not stop saying thanks to me, and this is what tends to make operating on Sundays in Kent just that little bit easier to me!
