Our Areas of Expertise :

Here are the top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

In Kent we are encountering more and more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mainly as a result of people not understanding the way to use it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to one another on the automobile.

So, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And certainly do not switch on the engine - not even to maneuver it into a parking area. In the event that you have started the car you may likely have to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally a serious matter to handle in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank will trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out than water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both cases quite quickly.

Remember though that any time the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a car parking spot we can access the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank sitting at the rear of the garden full of out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several domestic and commercial properties in Kent to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or possibly even several containers in a garage, provided that we can get to it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Offham (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a full Kent Run Out of Fuel Service. We will come to refill your vehicle in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) to refill the car. They will deal with the typical problems which might accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Offham - Offham Fuel Removal

This was certainly an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was about dawn and almost noone was around. It was quite quiet until now, and me and John were loafing about perusing some old articles. That was an uncommon quiet time in Kent. It was indeed that peaceful that the moment my mobile ultimately rang it made me jump! The customer explained: "I have only just finished my night shift and incredibly put petrol in the Peugeot by mistake". I asked him to tell us where exactly the car was located and we headed out, ending up in Offham no more than an hour later. The contaminated fuel was extracted from the vehicle and he thanked us profusely for coming so rapidly. While we were coming back to base we spotted two ladies at the side of the highway who seemed to have a flat tyre. As a result we got out to change it, to their elation.
