Services We Offer:

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Kent we have found a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a result of drivers not knowing the right way to use it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to each other on the car.

Well, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as the product is predominantly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And most certainly never start up the car - not even to move it to a parking place. Assuming you have started the vehicle you would probably need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a significant condition to take care of in a car - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel tank can potentially contribute to idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove in comparison with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can solve both situations very simply.

Be aware though that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one is going to be completely wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a car or truck parking bay we can gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir in the back of your premises full of old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous private and business premises in Kent to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps several drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Offham (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a full Kent Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to fill up the car in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) to refill your car or truck. They are also able to handle the most common troubles which could go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Recent Fuel Drains in Offham

Directly below are comments and cases of contaminated fuel removal we have performed in Offham:

I'm not very enthusiastic about working Sundays, and last week was no different. I'd just come away from the family following a tasty Sunday roast made by the missus, and I was en route to assist a man who filled the incorrect petrol in his Hyundai. He was located in Offham hence it wasn't a long time before I arrived with him. As I arrived at the vehicle and stepped out he told me "Thank God! I stupidly had my attention on something else and didn't realise I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I inflicted any kind of harm by running it?" I stated that generally there shouldn't be any kind of problems and that I would get the wrong fuel drained at once for him. It goes without saying that I removed the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and put in the suitable fuel, and thus another contented customer was able to continue on his ride with no difficulty. The gentleman did not stop saying thanks to me, and that is actually what makes carrying out work on Sundays in Kent just a small bit better to me!

A gentleman phoned us from his Jaguar where he had come to a halt on the hectic road. "I incorrectly put unleaded in my diesel car and I soon realised it a number of miles down the road!" Fortuitously we were in a position to attend him in a fairly quick time, considering the congestion, and he was shortly back on the road.

Wrong Fuel Offham - Offham Fuel Removal

I had enjoyed a perfect afternoon cycling during the weekend and felt cheerful with myself the following morning as I set off to help a young couple on vacation in Offham. They stopped after inserting petrol into their Volkswagen, and they were approximately an hour away. I turned up at their location and smirked as I heard to the wife telling her man off for actually being so silly. "How could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I tried to explain that this comes to pass all the time in Kent and that it's nothing at all to worry about, nonetheless he yet still had his ear bent. I felt genuine sympathy for the lad. In any case, I extracted the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave it some right fuel. Watching while they drove off I waved good bye and considered what her indoors would ask me in the event that I made the exact same blunder... I would personally under no circumstances live it down!
