Our Areas of Competence :

Here are the top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Kent we are finding progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mostly caused by drivers not being totally sure the right way to use it (be aware: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Since the product is predominantly deionised water, it is like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you discover youself to be in this position do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination business. Our engineers have the specialised know-how and working experience to have you back on your way quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant condition to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Having water in fuel tank will produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both cases rather simply.

Bear in mind however that if the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will likely be wholly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated near to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to reach the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank sitting at the back of your premises full of unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous privately owned and industrial premises in Kent to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a storage shed, assuming that we can get to it, we can certainly empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Ightham (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a full Kent Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to re-fill the car any time you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) and fill up your car. They can also deal with any of the standard issues which can go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as dead batteries caused by over-cranking.


Wrong Fuel Ightham - Ightham Wrong Fuel Doctor

A gentleman called us from Ightham to state that he stupidly pumped petrol into his diesel Citroen. "Shocking! How could I put petrol in my beautiful diesel car!" It took the fuel drainer approximately fifty minutes to fully drain the incorrect fuel from the car. He meticulously flushed the fuel lines, filter and pumps and after that put fresh fuel in the vehicle. The customer was happy and it hadn't cost him dealership prices to have the task professionally done.


Recent Fuel Drains in Ightham

Tales from our Ightham team:

We were contacted by a man whose Fiat had broken down on a road after a misfuel. "I got the pumps mixed up and put petrol instead of diesel in my car by mistake. WrongFuelSOS.com came out and sorted out the situation right after my car stopped." We purged the wrong fuel from the diesel tank and flushed the engine thoroughly and the driver was able to carry on with his sheduled delivery.

Wrong Fuel Ightham - Ightham Fuel Drain

A woman employed in Ightham contacted us shortly after she had managed to get her misfueled car to work. She had put unleaded in her diesel Smart and, like many before her, assumed that she could just top up her vehicle with diesel and it would be alright. The vehicle was chugging and then it cut out when she got to the entrance of her office. We quickly went to work on the fuel drain after she called and had it fixed within one hour whilst she was working. She came outside afterwards and thanked us saying, "I'm really glad you fixed my vehicle."

Vehicle Misfuel Ightham - Ightham Fuel Rescue

A man contacted us from his home on a street in Ightham. He explained, "My car (a Fiat) is not starting up and is creating very bad noises when I turn the ignition." He confessed that he put petrol in his diesel vehicle but then thought he would fix the problem by putting further Diesel on top. We were on scene promptly, did the drain and filled it up once again with untainted Diesel. He told us after that he'd be absolutely sure to tell people not to fill up over the incorrect fuel but to get it drained right away.
