Our Areas of Competence :

Below are the top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Newham we have discovered progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of drivers being unsure of the right way to work with it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it asap. And certainly do not start up the engine - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In case you did start the car you would in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually an important matter to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel tank is likely to lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both cases rather expediently.

You should know though that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we can gain access to the storage and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel tank lying in the rear of your premises with unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and business premises in Newham for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or even some drums in a storage shed, provided that we can reach it, we can certainly empty it.

Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Gravesend (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a complete Newham Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to refill your vehicle any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) to fill up your automobile. They will fix the typical problems that might come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Gravesend - Gravesend Wrong Fuel Drain

Last monday a young man called us soon after his Lexus ground to a halt on a street in Gravesend. He had mistakenly put unleaded in the diesel vehicle and drove so far as the street before having to pull up. It was still early in the morning and our engineer, who resides not far away, reached him in approximately ten minutes. We managed to drain the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel once again in to the vehicle. "Thank you for your timely response, especially at 6 a.m., I really appreciate it."
