Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we give.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Kent we are encountering increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of people not being totally sure how to use it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to each other on the car.

So, precisely what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it immediately. And absolutely be careful not to turn over the car - not even to move it away from the pump. In cases where you have started the car you would very likely have to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly an important issue to handle in a car - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the petrol or diesel is going to lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both cases very expediently.

Bear in mind though that if ever the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will likely be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to gain access to the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank laying in the back of your garden with aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and business premises in Kent for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or even a number of drums in a storage shed, as long as we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Sissinghurst (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a complete Kent Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill your vehicle in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at cost) and fill your vehicle. They are also able to take care of any of the typical troubles that can accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, as well as flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Sissinghurst - Sissinghurst Wrong Fuel

A gentleman had broken down near a road in Sissinghurst. His Porsche engine had ceased functioning and he'd no clue what was the problem until he realised he had put unleaded in his diesel car. He rang us to request a fuel drain and that's when he informed us: "I can't believe that I did not detect that I had put the incorrect fuel in my car." He claimed that he had got absolutely no rest the day before and that must have been the reason why.
