Petrol in Diesel Lidsing - Lidsing Fuel Removal

Ahhh, that was a good night of sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a warm Sunday and we were off to assist an old woman who had put petrol in her diesel Audi in Lidsing. She told us that she had left the filling station forecourt and stranded on a rural lane on route to visit her godchildren. I popped her location in the TomTom and was on-scene within an hour. I turned up at the stricken lady and removed the contaminated fuel from the car. While I was doing the work she said, "Now I'm becoming fairly absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the car taking diesel seeing that I'd just purchased it a couple of days ago when my old one, which I'd owned for in excess of thirty years, finally died". I completed the job and she offered me a Murray mint and thanked me for my work. What a lovely Kent lady!

Our Areas of Expertise :

Do you or your drivers often misfuel your car? We can resolve any associated problems.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Kent we are identifying increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a consequence of drivers not being aware of the right way to to make use of (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to each other on the car.

Well, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And of course be careful not to crank the motor - not even to move it off of the pump. In the event that you have started the vehicle you will probably need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant condition to address in a motor vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank can potentially lead to idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove than water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both situations rather quickly.

Take note though that if ever the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir laying at the back of your garden with old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous private and industrial properties in Kent for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or even numerous drums in an outbuilding, provided that we can get to it, we could certainly drain it for you.

We are able to help to re-fill your automobile if you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home.

This really was an unsociable time to be up. It was around sunrise and hardly anyone was stirring. It was rather quiet so far, and me and Paul were loafing around browsing a number of old papers. It was an unusual restful hour in Kent. Actually it was indeed that peaceful that the moment my mobile rang I jumped with surprise! The voice said: "I have only just finished my evening shift and stupidly put petrol in my diesel Land Rover in error". We instructed him to tell us where the vehicle was and we left, getting to him in Lidsing under an hour or so later. The fuel was cleaned from the vehicle. He thanked us profusely for coming out so fast. While we were returning to the office we spotted two women on the edge of the highway who looked like they had a flat. As a result we pulled over to help them change it, to their elation.
