Below are our top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Kent we have found more and more instances of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of drivers being unsure of the right way to use it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to one another on the car.

Now, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Since AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out immediately. And definitely never crank the engine - not even to shift it into a parking place. If you did start the car you may most likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a significant matter to address in an automobile - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol can bring about idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both situations fairly easily.

Bear in mind that any time the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one is going to be completely wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we can gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel tank placed at the back of the garden with out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of private and business properties in Kent to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even a few containers in a shed, if we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Pullington (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a complete Kent Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to refill your automobile in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump price) and refill the car. They will be able to deal with any of the common troubles that may come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as flat batteries due to over-cranking.
