It was just after seven pm on a Wednesday and while we were promised a dry day, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Mark and I were seated going over the footy results, ready for the 8th call for the day to arrive. Finally we received a call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had pulled into the Texaco petrol station in Dargate and put petrol in a diesel Nissan hire car in error. She was quite irritated it seemed, stating "I can not believe I've messed up the vehicle! I'm so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I completely forgot that I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that such things do happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a protected space and, since it was no more than a few miles away from where we were, we were able to reach the lady without delay. The wrong fuel was removed and she was able to get back to the hotel she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got fairly soaked, it was all worth the time to see her drive off satisfied and much less anxious. A job in Kent done well in my mind!

Vehicle Misfuel Dargate - Dargate Wrong Fuel in Car
What a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a warm Tuesday and I was en route to help an elder lovely lady after she put petrol in her diesel Mazda in Dargate. She informed us that she drove away from the filling station and was broken down along a rural lane along the way to see her grandchildren. I popped her location into the TomTom and was on-scene inside an hour or so. I arrived at the stricken lady and extracted the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. While I was doing the drain she explained, "Now I'm becoming somewhat absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle needing diesel as I'd only got it a few days ago after my other car, which I'd used for over twenty five years, eventually stopped working". I got the job completed and she presented me a peppermint and thanked me for my work. Such a lovely Kent woman!

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we provide.
AdBlue Contamination
All over Kent we are finding progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partially as a result of people not being aware of how to to make use of (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to one another on the car.
Well, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because the product is predominantly deionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.
Phone us if it turns out you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily take care of every type of AdBlue contamination.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant condition to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel can easily produce idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both situations rather easily.
Be aware though that if the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and useless.

Recent Fuel Drains in Dargate
Very common wrong fuel drain reviews in Dargate:
Now I'm not necessarily overly keen on running weekends, and the other day was no different. I had just come away from the wife and kids after eating a wonderful dinner prepared for me by the wife, and I was en route to help a fellow after he put the wrong petrol in his Hyundai. He was somewhere in Dargate therefore I arrived with him soon. As I pulled up right behind the car and got busy draining he said to me "Praise the Lord! I had my concentration on other stuff and did not ascertain I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Have I created harm simply by driving it?" I stated generally there probably should not be problems and that I'd personally get the contaminated fuel drained as quickly as possible for him. It goes without saying that I got the wrong fuel drained from the vehicle and put in the appropriate fuel, and so one more contented client could continue their trip with no bother. He could hardly stop thanking me, and this is actually what tends to make carrying out work on weekends in Kent just a tiny bit less painful for me!
Petrol in Diesel Dargate - Dargate Fuel Rescue
A driver from Dargate with a full car of youngsters in her diesel Ford had put £20 of petrol at the petrol station. She contacted us sobbing and very worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel car previously and didn't know what would happen to her vehicle because of it. We assured her that the car would be alright and that she would be back up and running soon. When we arrived on scene she was visible upset but as our engineer got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she noticed that something could be done and her car wasn't ruined. She quickly cheered up and was up and running saying, "I really can't believe my luck putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Especially with the little ones on board."
