Services We Provide:

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Bexley we are identifying increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent stemming from drivers not knowing the way to work with it (important: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Well, exactly what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Call us in the event that you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily correct all types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually an important issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel can bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of than water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both cases very swiftly.

Bear in mind however that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will be wholly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to parking bay we can gain access to the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Recent Fuel Drains in Erith

Stories from our own Erith employees:

Now I am certainly not very excited about working on weekends, and 2 weeks ago was no different. I'd only just come away from the family following a wonderful lunch cooked for us by the wife, and I was off to assist a gentleman who had put the incorrect petrol in his Volvo. He was stationed in Erith thus it wasn't long before I arrived with him. As I pulled up right behind the car and got busy draining he said to me "Thank the Lord! I had my mind on other considerations and failed to perceive I'd put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Have I brought on any harm because of running it?" I explained that there probably should not be problems and also that I would personally get the wrong fuel drained right away for him. Naturally I removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle and put in the suitable fuel, and thus another delighted motorist could continue on his journey with no fuss. The gentleman could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and that is actually what makes carrying out work on Sundays in Bexley just a small bit better to me!

Wrong Fuel Assist Erith - Erith Fuel Drain

This was most definitely what we call the graveyard shift. It was about dawn and nobody was about. It was pretty quiet until now, and me and Ryan were relaxing reading through a couple of old papers. This was an unusual peaceful time in Bexley. It was that quiet that the instant the telephone ultimately rang I jumped with surprise! The person explained: "I just concluded my overnight shift and incredibly put the wrong fuel in a Honda". I instructed him to let us know where exactly the car was and we set off, getting to him in Erith half an hour later. The wrong fuel was removed from the vehicle. He said thanks a lot for coming so quickly. As we were going back to the depot we saw two ladies on the side of the street who appeared to have a flat tyre. So we stopped to help them change it, to their delight.
