Fuel Removal Sutton Valence - Sutton Valence Wrong Fuel Drain
Just had a good night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 on a bright Tuesday and I was on the way to help an older sweetheart after she put the wrong fuel in her diesel SEAT in Sutton Valence. She told us that she had driven away from the filling station forecourt and was pulled up along a backwater road along the way to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I popped her location into the TomTom and was on-scene within an hour or so. I arrived at the car and drained the wrong fuel from the vehicle. While I was working she said to me, "I'm getting rather absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the car working with diesel because I'd only just bought it a short while back when my old car, which I had used for in excess of 30 years, inevitably stopped working". I completed the drain and she offered me a Murray mint and said thanks. Such a lovely Kent woman!

It was before eight pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry night, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Brian and me were seated there commenting on the rugby, ready for the seventh call for the day to come in. Eventually we received a phone call from a girl on a company excursion who had pulled into the Tesco filling garage in Sutton Valence and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel BMW hire car. She was very affected apparently, telling me "I cannot believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I totally did not remember I was using a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to worry, also that things like this often happen. She had managed to get the car into a protected spot and, seeing that it was only a short distance off from us, we were able to arrive at the customer rather quickly. The bad fuel was extracted so she could once again go back to the hotel she was lodging in. Even though we got very drenched, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive home satisfied and a lot less anxious. One more job in Kent done well in my opinion!

Our Areas of Specialties:
Below are our top services we offer to our clients.
AdBlue In your Fuel
All around Kent we have encountered increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a degree caused by drivers not being aware of the right way to to make use of (note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to each other on the vehicle.
Now, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.
If you put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it asap. And of course don't switch on the motor - not even to maneuver it into a parking bay. Assuming you did start the car you would likely have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally an important situation to take care of in an automobile - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Having water inside your diesel or petrol is going to bring about idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both situations pretty simply.
Bear in mind that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be totally wet and useless.
Marine Fuel Drains
In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}
Removal of Waste Fuel
Got a fuel container laying at the rear of the garden containing aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many private and commercial properties in Kent for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or possibly even several containers in an outbuilding, if we can get to it, we can empty it.
Run Out of Fuel Assistance
Run out of fuel in Sutton Valence (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a full Kent Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to refill the car in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) and refill your car or truck. They can also deal with any of the standard problems that might go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
Fuel Rescue Sutton Valence - Sutton Valence Fuel Removal
I had enjoyed a wonderful afternoon cycling during my afternoon off and was feeling satisfied with myself the next day as I headed out to assist a new family holidaying in Sutton Valence. They had conked out after inserting diesel into their Land Rover, and they were approximately an hour's drive away. I showed up at their car and laughed while I heard to the woman telling her man off for actually being so stupid. "How could you actually manage to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to explain that this kind of thing happens quite frequently in Kent and that it's nothing at all to be concerned about, but he all the same got an earful by his better half. I felt genuine sympathy for the chap. In any case, I drained all of the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled it up with the right fuel. While watching them drive away I waved good-bye and considered what her indoors would tell me if ever I made the very same error... I would personally never ever live it down!
