Our Areas of Expertise: Services Our Company Offers:

Here are the top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Kent we are encountering more and more examples of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a result of motorists not understanding how to use it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to each other on the automobile.

Now, what is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to take care of different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually a significant situation to deal with in a car - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel tank may cause idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not remedied effectively, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both situations pretty expediently.

Be aware that so long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one is going to be wholly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured close to an automobile parking bay we can reach the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}
