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

AdBlue Contamination

All around Kent we have discovered increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of people not understanding the right way to to make use of (please note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

So, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

If you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it asap. And of course take care not to turn over the motor - not even to shift it to a parking bay. In the event that you did start the car you would very likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, can be an important matter to handle in an automobile - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel can easily cause idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both situations quite expediently.

Remember though that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to reach the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container sitting in the rear of the garden with out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and business properties in Kent for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a shed, as long as we can reach it, we can certainly empty it.

Run out of fuel in Mersham (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a complete Kent Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill your vehicle in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home.
