Helping you get back on the road is our primary goal.

AdBlue Contamination

In Kent we are finding progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partially stemming from motorists not understanding how to to make use of (note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to one another on the car.

Well, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained immediately. And most certainly don't start up the motor - not even to shift it to a parking place. In the event that you have started the vehicle you will in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally an important issue to address in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in the diesel or petrol can certainly lead to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both situations quite expediently.

Take note though that any time the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will be totally wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car or truck parking spot we are able to access the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank sitting at the rear of your premises containing old, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and business properties in Kent to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a few drums in a garage, as long as we are able to reach it, we can drain it.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Staplehurst (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a comprehensive Kent Run Out of Fuel Service. We will come to fill up your car any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) and fill up your vehicle. They are also able to fix any of the typical issues that could go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Staplehurst - Staplehurst Wrong Fuel Doctor

I had a wonderful day fishing on my holiday and felt contented the next morning as I headed out to assist a young couple holidaying in Staplehurst. They had pulled over after filling diesel into their Smart, and were roughly an hour away. I emerged at their location and smiled while I heard to the lady telling her hubby off for turning out to be so daft. "Exactly how could you conceivably manage to fill the vehicle up using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I wanted to clarify that this occurs on daily basis in Kent and that it's truly absolutely nothing to be anxious about, however he in spite of everything had his ear bent by his better half. Unlucky guy. Anyhow, I drained out the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave it some appropriate fuel. While they drove away I waved so long and wondered what my wife would say to me if ever I made the same mistake... I'd under no circumstances live it down!
