We are the specialists for your needs!

It was about eight pm on a Tuesday and though we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not given up on raining! Dan and I were relaxing there talking over the tennis results, waiting for the 6th fuel drain of the day to come in. In due time we had a phone call from a woman on a business trip who had arrived at the Esso filling station in The Harbour and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Audi rental car. She was rather agitated apparently, stating "I still cannot believe that I have wrecked the car! I am so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I had forgot that I was running a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to worry, plus that these things sadly happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a safe position and, because it was just a few minutes off from where we were, we were able to reach the customer without delay. The bad fuel was drained and she could get back to the Travelodge she was residing at. Despite the fact that we got fairly wet, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away calm and not so stressed. A misfuel correction in Kent well done in my opinion!

Our Services:

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue In your Fuel

What you should do in case you may have put Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? It is definitely damaging to your car's fuel system, specifically any time you have had the engine running with Adblue in the fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the Adblue will undoubtedly be pushed into the fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, causing serious and costly problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

If you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it right away. And definitely never switch on the engine - not even to shift it away from the pump. In case you have started the vehicle you will very likely need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious matter to take care of in a car - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel will often trigger idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of fully, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both situations very simply.

Remember that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a car parking bay we will be able to access the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel reservoir placed at the rear of your premises full of old, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many private and industrial premises in Kent for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a garage, if we are able to access it, we can drain it.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in The Harbour (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a comprehensive Kent Out of Fuel Service. We can help to fill up the car any time you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) to refill your car. They are also able to take care of the usual issues which could go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car The Harbour - The Harbour Fuel Removal

A guy had stopped near a road in The Harbour. His Land Rover car had ceased working and he had no clue what was awry right up until he realised he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car. He contacted us to request a fuel drain and that is when he told us: "I can't believe that I didn't know that I had put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He stated that he had got zero sleep the day before and that could have been the key reason why.
