If you've put the incorrect fuel in your car and now need a fuel drain you are probably trawling the net looking for a fast, reputable, qualified and affordable wrong fuel removal company in Charing or Kent. We are the contractor for you!

It was just after 10 pm on a Monday and while we were promised a dry day, it hadn't stopped raining! James and I were resting going over the weekend's golf rankings, ready for the next job for the day to come in. In due time we had the call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had gone to the Texaco petrol station in Charing and filled petrol in a diesel Mazda rental in error. She was very troubled apparently, saying "I still cannot believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I am so used to filling up my petrol car that I had forgot I was operating a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to fret, and that these things sadly can happen. She managed to relocate the car to a safe area and, because it was no more than a few miles off from where we were, we could reach the customer almost instantly. The bad fuel was removed and she could go home to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Despite the fact we got very wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive away relaxed and less worried. Yet another misfuel correction in Kent done well in my opinion!

Our Areas of Expertise:

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue Contamination

What to do if you may have poured Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a chemical made from a mix of deionized water and urea (32.5%).It can be damaging to your automobile's fuel system, especially if you run the engine with Adblue in the tank. As soon as the engine has been started the Adblue is going to be injected into your fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, resulting in devastating and expensive problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

In case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained asap. And most definitely be careful not to start up the motor - not even to move it to a parking place. In the event that you have started the vehicle you may most likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually a significant matter to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel tank can easily result in idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of than water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both circumstances rather quickly.

Be aware though that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one is going to be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked near to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

We've been called out to numerous privately owned and industrial properties in Kent to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or even some drums in a shed, assuming that we are able to reach it, we can empty it for you.

Petrol in Diesel Charing - Charing Fuel Drain

A guy had broken down just off a street in Charing. His Ford engine had stopped running and he had no clue what was wrong until eventually he noticed he put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He contacted us to get a fuel drain and that's when he informed us: "I cannot believe that I didn't know that I put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He stated that he had gotten very little sleep the evening before and that must have been the reason.
