Our Areas of Expertise: Services We Offer:

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Kent we have identified a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is in part as a result of people not understanding how to use it (be aware: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to one another on the automobile.

So, what's the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Since AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it right away. And most definitely take care not to turn over the car - not even to shift it off the pump. If you did start the car you will in all probability have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, can be a significant condition to address in an automobile - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your petrol or diesel may trigger idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both situations quite quickly.

Keep in mind though that in the event that the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored near to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to gain access to the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container sitting in the rear of your premises with unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial properties in Kent for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous drums in a shed, provided that we can get to it, we could certainly empty it.

Out of fuel in Hothfield (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a complete Kent Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to fill up your car in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at cost) to fill your automobile.
