Our Services:

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we provide.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Kent we are identifying a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly caused by motorists not knowing the way to work with it (please note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to one another on the automobile.

Now, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? As AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it asap. And most definitely be careful not to switch on the vehicle - not even to relocate it into a parking place. Assuming you have started the car you would in all likelihood have to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally a significant condition to deal with in a car - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel can easily lead to idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can handle both situations fairly simply.

Take note that if ever the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will be completely wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked close to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel reservoir laying at the rear of the garden with unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many private and business premises in Kent to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or even a number of drums in an outbuilding, if we can reach it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Luddesdown (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a comprehensive Kent Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill your vehicle in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) and fill up your vehicle. They can also take care of any of the standard issues that could go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Stories from our own Luddesdown team:

I'm not actually so inclined to working Sundays, and a week ago was the same. I had just come away from the wife and kids after a fantastic lunch cooked by the missus, and I was on my way to help a gentleman after he had filled the wrong fuel in his Hyundai. He was located in Luddesdown and so it wasn't a long time before I got to him. Just as I drove up at the car and got out he explained to me "Praise God! I foolishly had my thoughts on stuff and did not grasp that I had put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I created some problems as a result of driving it?" I determined that generally there should not be any problems and also that I'd personally remove the fuel quickly for him. Needless to say I got the wrong fuel drained from the car and put in some suitable fuel, and so one more delighted client had the ability to carry on with their journey without the difficulty. The guy could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and that is actually what makes carrying out work on weekends in Kent just that little bit better for me personally!

This really was what we call the graveyard shift. It was around dawn and almost noone was around. It had been pretty uneventful thus far, and me and John were sitting reading through a few old magazines. It was an uncommon peaceful time in Kent. Actually it was that peaceful that the moment the phone ultimately rang it made me jump! The motorist on the other end explained: "I only just concluded my evening shift and foolishly filled petrol in a diesel Volkswagen in error". We got him to let us know just where he was and we headed out, ending up in Luddesdown only an hour later. The wrong fuel was taken out from the motor and he thanked us for getting there so fast. While we were returning to the office we noticed two young ladies on the side of the street who appeared to have a puncture. As a result we stopped and helped them change it, to their delight.

Last week a driver called us soon after his BMW stopped working on a street in Luddesdown. He had inadvertently put unleaded in his diesel vehicle and drove to the street before having to pull over. It was still in the early hours of the day and our engineer, who stays not far away, got to him in approximately 20 minutes. We were able to take out the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel yet again in the car. "Genuine kudos to you for your fast response, and in particular at 2 a.m., I really appreciate it."
