Below are our top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Kent we have noticed a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a result of motorists not being aware of how to use it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to each other on the car.

So, what is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And of course do not switch on the vehicle - not even to move it into a parking bay. In cases where you have started the car you would likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important condition to take care of in a car - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel may well cause idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not remedied fully, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain than water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both cases rather easily.

Take note however that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to access the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

We have been called out to numerous privately owned and commercial premises in Kent to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a shed, assuming that we can get to it, we can certainly drain it.
