It was after 7 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were sitting talking about the recent football results, waiting for the 8th job that day to come in. Eventually we had the call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had pulled into the Texaco petrol garage in Hythe and filled petrol in her diesel Ford rental car in error. The poor thing was quite troubled apparently, saying "I just can't believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I totally did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that such things happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a secure position and, seeing as it was only a few miles from us, we could arrive at the woman rather quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she could go home to the hotel she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got really wet, it was all worth it to see her drive off relaxed and not so stressed. Yet another job in Kent done well in my books!

Wrong Fuel Hythe - Hythe Fuel Rescue
Ahhh, that was a good night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a gloomy Bank Holiday Monday and I was on my way to assist an elder lovely lady after she put petrol in her diesel Smart in Hythe. I'd been advised she drove away from the filling station forecourt and broken down on a rural road on route to see her godchildren. I punched the location into the TomTom and arrived in less than an hour. I reached the car and extracted the contaminated fuel out of the car. While I was working she said, "I am getting quite absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the vehicle taking diesel seeing that I had only bought it a few days ago after my old one, which I used for about 30 years, eventually died on me". I got the job done and she gifted me a peppermint and said thanks a lot. Such a pleasant Kent woman!

Our Areas of Competency :
We can assist you with all these mis-fuel problems.
AdBlue In your Fuel
What you can do in case you?ve poured Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? It can be damaging to your automobile's fuel system, especially in cases where you started the car with Adblue in your diesel tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the Adblue will likely be dragged into your fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, leading to catastrophic and costly damage to your vehicle's fuel system.
In case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it immediately. And most certainly be careful not to start up the motor - not even to relocate it to a parking bay. Assuming you did start the car you may likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a significant situation to deal with in an automobile - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel may well cause idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both cases pretty simply.
Be aware however that if the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and ineffective.
Boat Fuel Drains
If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel.
