It was around 6 pm on a Saturday and even though we were guaranteed a dry evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and me were relaxing there talking over the recent sports, ready for the 8th telephone call that day to arrive. Inevitably we had a phone call from a woman on a business excursion who had gone to the BP filling station in Swingfield Street and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Renault rental by mistake. The poor thing was very distressed it seemed, crying "I still can't believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I am so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember I was running a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that such things sadly happen. She managed to maneuver the car to a secure position and, as it was just a short distance away from us, we were able to arrive at the customer quickly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to once again go back to the motel she was living at. Despite the fact that we got really soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive away calm and less concerned. A misfuel correction in Kent well done in my books!

Services We Give:

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

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Kent we have encountered progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination when a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partially caused by people not being aware of how to work with it (important: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Since AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Any time you find yourself in this situation don?t panic! Call us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our technicians possess the practical expertise and experience to have you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important situation to handle in a car - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank will cause idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both situations quite simply.

Be aware though that if ever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to parking spot we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container in the back of the garden full of aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several private and industrial properties in Kent for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even several drums in a shed, providing we can access it, we are able to drain it.

Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Swingfield Street (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a comprehensive Kent Out of Fuel Service. We can come to refill your vehicle any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at cost) to refill your car or truck. They will handle the common issues which might come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Swingfield Street - Swingfield Street Petrol in Diesel

A customer phoned us from his house on a street in Swingfield Street. He pronounced, "My vehicle (a Toyota) is not starting up and is producing very bad sounds when I flip the ignition." He confessed that he put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle but then reckoned he would resolve the problem by putting more Diesel on top. We were on scene quickly, did the drain and filled it up once more with untainted Diesel. He said after that he'd be sure to explain to people not to fill up on top of the wrong fuel but to get it drained right away.
