It was close to 9 pm on a Saturday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it had not stopped pouring! Dan and I were seated there discussing the recent footy rankings, ready for the sixth call of the day to come in. In due time we had the call from a girl on a business excursion who had gone to the Esso filling garage in Sandwich and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Chevrolet rental by mistake. She was very troubled by the sounds of it, telling me "I still cannot believe that I've ruined the car! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to fret, and also that things like this unfortunately can happen. She was able to move the vehicle into a safe area and, seeing as it was just a short distance away from the office, we were able to find the customer without delay. The wrong fuel was taken out and she could return to the motel she was staying in. Even though we got pretty soaked, it was all worthwhile to see her drive home relaxed and much less concerned. One more misfuel correction in Kent done well in my mind!

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Kent we have discovered increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of motorists not being aware of the way to use it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that the product is mostly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it asap. And of course take care not to start up the car - not even to maneuver it into a parking place. If you have started the vehicle you may most likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly an important situation to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel tank is going to contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both circumstances fairly swiftly.

Bear in mind however that if ever the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to an automobile parking spot we are able to gain access to the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank laying at the rear of your garden full of unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and business properties in Kent to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several containers in a garage, provided that we can access it, we are able to drain it.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Sandwich (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a complete Kent Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to fill up your vehicle in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump prices) to refill your car. They can also take care of any of the typical troubles that can come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Sandwich - Sandwich Wrong Fuel Assist

A guy had conked out off a road in Sandwich. His Fiat engine had stopped running and he had no idea what was faulty until eventually he realised he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle. He phoned us to get a fuel drain and it was then when he told us: "I can't believe that I did not comprehend that I put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had gotten zero sleep the day before and that must have been the reason why.
