It was around 10 pm on a Saturday and although we were assured a rainless evening, it hadn't ceased raining! Ryan and I were seated there going over the recent tennis, waiting around for the next job of the day to come in. In due time we had a call from a young lady on a company excursion who had pulled into the Tesco filling station in Badlesmere and filled petrol in her diesel Fiat rental car by mistake. She was pretty agitated by the sounds of it, saying "I still cannot believe I have destroyed the car! I am so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car I totally did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, plus that these things happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a safe spot and, because it was only a short distance from us, we could arrive at the lady without delay. The bad fuel was taken out and she could go home to the motel she was living in. Although we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive off satisfied and much less apprehensive. Another fuel drain in Kent well done in my books!

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Kent we have found progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partially due to drivers being unsure of how to use it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Well, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

Give us a call if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to take care of all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant issue to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol is going to contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both situations pretty simply.

Remember though that in the event that the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one is going to be totally water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a car or truck parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel container at the rear of your premises full of aged, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several private and industrial properties 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 recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in a shed, as long as we are able to access it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Badlesmere (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a comprehensive Kent Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill your vehicle if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at cost) to refill your car or truck. They will be able to deal with the common issues which might go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Badlesmere - Badlesmere Wrong Fuel Drain

A while back a young man called us when his Dacia stopped working in the middle of a street in Badlesmere. He had accidentally put unleaded in his diesel vehicle and drove as far as the street before being forced to pull up. It was yet early in the day and our fuel drainer, who stays close by, reached him in approximately a quarter hour. We managed to drain the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel back into the car. "Thank you for your timely response, particularly at 5 a.m., I truly appreciate it."
