This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Kent we are encountering increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part due to motorists not being totally sure the way to work with it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

So, what's the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Since the product is primarily deionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

In the event that you put AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it asap. And most certainly never start up the vehicle - not even to maneuver it into a parking area. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you may almost certainly need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be an important situation to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank can certainly produce idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can handle both circumstances fairly swiftly.

Bear in mind however that as long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will likely be completely wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated close to parking spot we can gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir in the back of the garden containing old, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of private and commercial premises in Kent to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or even some drums in a garage, if we are able to get to it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Alkham (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a full Kent Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to fill up your car in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill your vehicle. They can also handle the normal issues that might come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Alkham - Alkham Wrong Fuel Assist

I had appreciated a wonderful day cycling during my holiday and was feeling delighted with myself the next morning as I set out to aid a young couple on holiday in Alkham. They conked out after inserting the wrong fuel in their Jaguar, and the car was close to an hour away. I emerged at their car and laughed to myself as I listened to the wife chastising her spouse for actually being so stupid. "Precisely how could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I tried to explain that this problem takes place everyday in Kent and that it's truly nothing to get worried about, even so he all the same had his ear bent. I felt genuine sympathy for the boy. In any case, I cleaned up and removed all of the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and gave it some appropriate fuel. Watching them drive away I waved so long and pondered on what my missus would ask me if ever I made the very same blunder... I'd personally never hear the end of it!
