These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:
AdBlue In Your Diesel
Throughout Kent we are encountering more and more instances of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mainly as a result of drivers not knowing how to to make use of (pay attention: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to each other on the vehicle.
So, what's the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? As AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.
Call us if you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to attend to every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually a serious issue to take care of in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Having water inside your petrol or diesel can certainly produce idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both situations pretty quickly.
Remember however that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will likely be completely wet and ineffective.
Boat Fuel Drains
If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it.

Wrong Fuel Margate - Margate Wrong Fuel Drain
A driver from Margate with a full car of kids in her diesel Lexus had filled her vehicle with £40 of petrol at the Tesco station. She phoned us crying and very distraught as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel before and did not know what would happen to her car in doing so. We assured her that everything should be ok and that she would be back ready to go soon. When we arrived on scene she was visible distressed but as our engineer got to work on the fuel drain she calmed down because she saw that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't wrecked. She soon enough brightened up and was up and running saying, "I just can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Particularly with the kids in the back."
