Our Fields of Specialties:

Below are our top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Kent we have noticed more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly a result of people not being aware of how to work with it (take note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to each other on the car.

Well, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Because the product is primarily deionised 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 cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it right away. And definitely never start up the motor - not even to move it into a parking bay. If perhaps you have started the car you may probably have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually an important condition to deal with in a car - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel will often produce idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both situations quite expediently.

Be aware that whenever the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will probably be wholly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel tank lying at the rear of your premises full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and commercial premises in Kent to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even several drums in a garage, if we can reach it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in St Augustines (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a comprehensive Kent Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to re-fill your vehicle in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill up your automobile. They are also able to deal with the most common troubles that may go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car St Augustines - St Augustines Wrong Fuel Drain

A customer phoned us from his place on a close in St Augustines. He said, "My car (a Smart) is not starting and is generating terrible noises when I turn the ignition." He said that he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle but then reckoned he would fix the issue by putting additional Diesel on top. We were on scene promptly, did the drain and filled it up once again with untainted Diesel. He said after that he would be absolutely sure to advise people not to fill up over the incorrect fuel but to have it drained right away.
