Our Fields of Specialties: Services We Offer:

Listed here are the top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Kent we are finding a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent caused by people being unsure of how to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to each other on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Since AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it right away. And of course be careful not to turn over the car - not even to relocate it into a parking area. Assuming you have started the car you may almost certainly need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a significant condition to handle in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel can lead to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both circumstances rather quickly.

Remember that if ever the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will be totally water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to an automobile parking bay we are able to access the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir laying in the rear of your garden with out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many domestic and commercial properties in Kent to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several drums in a storage shed, as long as we can access it, we can drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in The Moor (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a comprehensive Kent Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to fill up your car if you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at cost) and fill up your car or truck. They can also take care of the most common troubles that may go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car The Moor - The Moor Wrong Fuel in Car

A customer phoned us from his place on a close in The Moor. He exclaimed, "My car (a Vauxhall) is not running and is making very bad noises when I turn the key." He admitted that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle but then reckoned he would resolve the problem by putting more Diesel on top. We showed up promptly, performed the fuel drain and filled him up once again with untainted Diesel. He told us he'd be sure to advise people not to fill up on top of the incorrect fuel but to have it drained immediately.
