Wrong Fuel Doctor Pootings - Pootings Fuel Removal

Just had a fantastic night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 am on a bright Bank Holiday Monday and we were off to help an elder sweetheart who had put petrol in her diesel Honda in Pootings. She informed us that she had driven away from the petrol station and was broken down on a rural lane along the way to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I plugged the location straight into the TomTom and arrived within an hour. I got to the destination and drained the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. As I was doing the drain she said, "I am becoming rather forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle using diesel as I had only purchased it a short while ago after my other car, which I had for over thirty years, finally died". I finished the drain and she offered me a Murray mint and thanked me for my efforts. What a pleasant Kent woman!

We are thoroughly compliant and covered so you understand the car is in risk-free hands. Regardless if you are driving an ancient jalopy or a new supercar we can help.

Our Services:

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue Contamination

All over Kent we are noticing progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a degree a result of drivers not being totally sure how to to make use of (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to each other on the automobile.

Well, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is predominantly ionised water, it's as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

In case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And certainly don't switch on the engine - not even to shift it into a parking area. Assuming you did start the car you would almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a serious matter to take care of in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel can lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both cases very quickly.

Be aware though that whenever the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked close to parking spot we can reach the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir at the rear of your premises full of old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and industrial premises in Kent for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a garage, assuming that we are able to get to it, we could certainly empty it for you.
