Services We Give:

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Kent we are finding increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent a result of motorists not knowing how to use it (take note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to each other on the car.

So, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing as the product is predominantly deionised water, it is as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it right away. And certainly be careful not to turn over the engine - not even to relocate it to a parking place. If you have started the vehicle you will likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant issue to handle in a vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol may produce idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out than water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both cases fairly swiftly.

You should know however that so long as the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will be totally wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a car parking bay we can access the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Have an old fuel reservoir placed at the rear of the garden with out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several domestic and business premises in Kent to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps some containers in an outbuilding, providing we are able to reach it, we can drain it for you.
