Our Areas of Competency :

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

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Kent we have noticed progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a result of motorists not knowing the way to to make use of (note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to each other on the vehicle.

So, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely do not start up the engine - not even to shift it to a parking spot. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you may probably have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly a significant situation to deal with in an automobile - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel is likely to contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both situations quite easily.

You should know that as long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured close to a vehicle parking spot we can gain access to the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel tank in the rear of your garden containing unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several private and industrial properties in Kent to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in a garage, provided that we can reach it, we can certainly empty it.
