Our Areas of Expertise:

Listed here are the top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Kent we are discovering increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partly thanks to motorists being unsure of how to to make use of (take note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Well, what is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? As the product is predominantly ionised water, it is just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it at once. And obviously take care not to crank the car - not even to maneuver it off the pump. In case you have started the car you may probably need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a significant condition to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in diesel or petrol will produce idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain than water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both cases very quickly.

Bear in mind though that if the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will probably be completely wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured close to an automobile parking bay we will be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container laying at the back of your premises full of unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many domestic and business premises in Kent to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even numerous containers in a garage, providing we can get to it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Folkestone (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a full Kent Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to refill your automobile in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and refill your automobile. They are also able to handle the most common problems that can go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, as well as dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
