It was just before five pm on a Friday and although we were promised a dry afternoon, it had not given up on raining! Ryan and I were relaxing discussing the rugby, waiting around for the 6th call of the day to arrive. In due time we got a call from a lady on a business trip who had arrived at the Texaco petrol station in South Street and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Audi rental by mistake. The unfortunate thing was fairly agitated it seemed, stating "I just can't believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I am so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to fret, and that these things happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a protected space and, since it was just a short distance from us, we were able to arrive at the customer without delay. The bad fuel was extracted so she could return to the Premier Inn she was living at. Even though we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth it to see her drive home calm and not so apprehensive.

Our Areas of Competency :

Listed here are our top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Kent we are identifying an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially due to people being unsure of the way to to make use of (important: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to each other on the car.

So, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Since AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you get in this scenario do not panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination company. Our technicians have got the technical expertise and experience to get you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a serious condition to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel will often lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both circumstances fairly quickly.

Keep in mind that whenever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will be wholly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated near to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir placed at the back of your garden full of unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial properties in Kent for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in South Street (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a full Kent Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to re-fill your automobile in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill your vehicle. They can also handle the usual issues which might go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
