Wrong Fuel in Car Pootings, Kent

We can help you with these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Kent we have encountered increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly thanks to drivers not being aware of the right way to work with it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

Give us a call if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to correct every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally an important condition to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank may well bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both circumstances very easily.

Be aware though that if ever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will probably be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to an automobile parking bay we are able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir placed in the rear of your premises containing unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and commercial properties in Kent to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a storage shed, as long as we can reach it, we could certainly drain it.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Pootings (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a complete Kent Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to refill your automobile any time you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at cost) and fill your automobile. They will be able to handle the typical problems which may come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Pootings - Pootings Petrol in Diesel

I had a perfect evening golfing during my off day and was feeling satisfied the following day as I was on the way to assist a young couple who were away in Pootings. They'd stopped after putting petrol in their Vauxhall, and the car was around an hour's travel away. I showed up at their position and smiled as I heard to the wife telling her spouse off for actually being so daft. "Exactly how could you actually manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I tried to tell her that this happens regularly in Kent and that it is absolutely nothing to fret about, but he in spite of everything got an earful. Unfortunate guy. Anyways, I extracted the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the right fuel. While they drove off I mouthed so long and considered what her indoors would tell me if I made the exact same mistake... I'd never ever hear the end of it!

Recent Fuel Drains in Pootings

Testimonies from our own Pootings employees:

Now I'm certainly not so enthusiastic about carrying out work weekends, and last week was the same. I'd just come away from the family after a tasty lunch cooked by the better half, and I was off to sort out a man who put the incorrect fuel in his MG. He was somewhere in Pootings hence I was on scene almost immediately. As I pulled up at the car and got out he said to me "Praise God! I stupidly had my mind on stuff and failed to grasp that I had put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I brought on harm as a result of driving it?" I said generally there shouldn't be any kind of problems and also that I would get the wrong fuel drained right away for him. Naturally I removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle and filled up with the suitable fuel, and then another happy customer could carry on with his trip without difficulty. The man couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and that is exactly what helps make carrying out work on Sundays in Kent a tiny bit better in my opinion!

Wrong Fuel Pootings - Pootings Wrong Fuel Doctor

A driver from Pootings with her kids in her diesel Honda had put £45 of petrol at the Co Op filling station. She contacted us weeping and really worried as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel and did not know what could happen to her vehicle in doing so. We assured her that all would be okay and that she would be back on the road in no time at all. When we got there she was still distressed but as our engineer began work on the fuel drain she calmed down because she saw that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't ruined. She soon enough cheered up and was up and running saying, "I simply can't believe my misfortune putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Especially with the children in the back."
