These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:
AdBlue In your Fuel
Throughout Kent we have noticed increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partially as a consequence of people not being aware of how to use it (pay attention: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.
Well, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? As the product is primarily ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.
In case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained right away. And of course be careful not to switch on the motor - not even to shift it into a parking bay. If you have started the car you would in all probability need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally a significant condition to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank may well trigger idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not addressed correctly, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both circumstances fairly expediently.
Be aware however that in the event that the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will probably be wholly wet and unusable.
Boat Fuel Drains
If there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}
Management of Waste Fuel
Have a fuel reservoir placed at the rear of the garden containing old, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and business premises in Kent to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several containers in a shed, providing we are able to reach it, we are able to empty it.

Recent Fuel Drains in Fleet Downs
Stories from our Fleet Downs team:
I'm not overly inclined to working on weekends, and last week was the same. I had just come away from home after a superb roast cooked for me by the better half, and I was on the way to assist a gentleman because he put the wrong petrol in his Toyota. He was somewhere in Fleet Downs therefore I was with him rapidly. As I arrived behind the vehicle and got busy draining he told me "Thank the Almighty! I foolishly had my thoughts on stuff and didn't grasp that I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Have I created damage through driving it?" I revealed that there probably should not be harm and that I would personally remove the contaminated fuel quickly for him. Naturally I got the fuel drained from the car and put in the correct fuel, and so another pleased customer was able to carry on with his trip without the need for hassle. He couldn't stop thanking me, and this is what makes carrying out work on weekends in Kent a little bit easier to me!
