Services We Offer:

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we offer.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Kent we have encountered more and more cases of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mostly caused by motorists not knowing how to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Because the product is mostly deionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And certainly never switch on the car - not even to relocate it away from the pump. In the instance that you have started the car you would most likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious situation to take care of in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel will likely contribute to idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both situations pretty quickly.

Take note that in the event that the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will likely be totally water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a car parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel container sitting at the back of your premises with aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and business premises in Kent to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we can get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Walderslade (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a complete Kent Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to refill your car if you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump prices) to fill your car or truck. They are also able to deal with the common problems that might accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.
