Our Areas of Experience :

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Kent we have seen an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to some extent caused by motorists not knowing how to to make use of (note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to one another on the car.

So, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing that the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it asap. And absolutely take care not to crank the vehicle - not even to relocate it to a parking spot. If you did start the car you would in all probability need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question an important situation to deal with in an automobile - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in the diesel or petrol will likely result in idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both cases fairly expediently.

Take note though that so long as the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the storage and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Wrong Fuel Assist Congelow - Congelow Wrong Fuel Doctor

I enjoyed a perfect evening cycling on the weekend and was feeling cheerful the following working day as I headed out to aid a young couple holidaying in Congelow. They had pulled over after inserting diesel in their Fiat, and they were around half an hour away. I emerged at their car and smirked as I heard to the woman telling off her man for actually being so foolish. "How could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I attempted to explain that this problem occurs on daily basis in Kent and that it's in reality nothing to fret about, nonetheless he all the same had his ear bent by his better half. Unlucky boy. Anyways, I removed the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the right fuel. Watching as they drove away I waved bon voyage and thought about what my missus would ask me in the event that I made the exact same mistake... I'd under no circumstances live it down!
