It was close to 7 pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ray and I were sitting there going over the weekend's rugby, at the ready for the sixth fuel drain that day to arrive. In due time we had a phone call from a young lady on a company trip who had arrived at the Tesco filling garage in Crabble and put petrol in a diesel Toyota lease car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was very affected it seemed, saying "I can't believe I have messed up the car! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol car I had didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to worry, plus that such things sadly can happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle to a protected space and, since it was just a short distance from us, we were able to arrive at her without delay. The incorrect fuel was drained so she could go home to the hotel she was residing at. Despite the fact we got very wet, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive home calm and less apprehensive. A misfuel correction in Kent done well in my books!

AdBlue Contamination

All around Kent we have found a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a result of people not being aware of the right way to work with it (remember: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to one another on the automobile.

Now, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

Any time you find yourself in this position do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our engineers have the technical skills and working experience to get you back on your way promptly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually an important issue to take care of in an automobile - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel tank will likely cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain than water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both cases quite quickly.

Keep in mind though that in the event that the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will probably be totally wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated near to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the storage and drain out the fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel container placed at the back of the garden with aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial premises in Kent for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or even a number of drums in a shed, as long as we can reach it, we could certainly empty it.

Out of fuel in Crabble (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a full Kent Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to refill your vehicle any time you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home.
