It was after 7 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't ceased raining! Brian and I were sitting discussing the rugby results, waiting for the 8th call that day to arrive. Eventually we had a phone call from a lady on a company excursion who had gone to the Texaco petrol station in Maltmans Hill and filled petrol in a diesel Land Rover hire car. The unfortunate thing was quite troubled apparently, stating "I can not believe that I've messed up the car! I'm just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I totally did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that such things often happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a safe area and, seeing that it was just a short distance away from our van, we could arrive at the woman quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out and she could once again go back to the motel she was living in. Even though we got pretty drenched, it was all worth the time seeing her drive home satisfied and a lot less worried. Another misfuel correction in Kent done well in my mind!

AdBlue Contamination

All around Kent we are noticing more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially thanks to drivers not being totally sure how to to make use of (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Since AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained right away. And most definitely do not switch on the motor - not even to relocate it into a parking spot. In the instance that you have started the car you may very likely have to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely a serious matter to address in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel can easily contribute to idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both situations rather quickly.

Be aware that in the event that the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one is going to be completely wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a vehicle parking bay we can reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container lying at the back of the garden containing aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial premises in Kent to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a shed, providing we can reach it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Maltmans Hill (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a full Kent Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to refill your automobile in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at cost) and refill the car. They will take care of any of the most common issues which can go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
