It was close to 10 pm on a Saturday and though we were promised a dry night, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and I were seated going over the golf, ready for the sixth telephone call of the day to arrive. Inevitably we received a phone call from a lady on a company trip who had arrived at the Esso filling garage in Grove End and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Toyota hire car in error. She was quite agitated by the sounds of it, saying "I simply cannot believe that I have wrecked the car! I'm so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I totally forgot that I was running a diesel!" I told her to settle back and not to worry, plus that things like this unfortunately happen. She had managed to relocate the car into a safe spot and, as it was just a short distance from our van, we could find the customer without delay. The bad fuel was removed and she could return to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Even though we got very soaked, it was all rewarding to see her drive away satisfied and much less anxious.

Our Areas of Expertise :

We can assist you with all these mis-fuel mistakes.

AdBlue Contamination

What you can do in case you may have put Adblue in a Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a solution made from a mixture of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water.It can be damaging to your car's fuel system, specifically in cases where you started the car with Adblue in your diesel fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the Adblue will be dragged into the fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, triggering serious and expensive harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

Give us a call if you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will correct different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a significant issue to address in a vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the petrol or diesel may well lead to idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both situations fairly easily.

Be aware however that if the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will be completely wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to parking spot we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

We have been called out to numerous private and business premises in Kent to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages.
