It was after 8 pm on a Friday and though we were promised a dry and fresh day, it had not stopped raining! Dan and I were seated there commenting on the footy, at the ready for the seventh telephone call to arrive. Before long we had a call from a lady on a business trip who had pulled into the BP filling garage in Clapper Hill and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Citroen rental car in error. The unfortunate lady was fairly distressed apparently, crying "I simply can't believe I've messed up the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol car I totally did not remember that I was using a diesel!" I just told her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that such things can happen. She was able to get the car into a secure space and, as it was no more than a short distance from where we were, we could arrive at the customer almost instantly.

Do you or your employees usually misfuel your vehicle? We can solve any connected issues.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Kent we have found more and more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a result of drivers being unsure of how to work with it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Because the product is mainly deionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained right away. And certainly do not crank the vehicle - not even to maneuver it to a parking bay. Assuming you have started the car you will probably have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually an important matter to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in diesel or petrol can easily result in idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both circumstances pretty swiftly.

Take note however that if ever the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to reach the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir placed at the back of the garden containing old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and industrial premises in Kent to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or even a number of containers in a shed, as long as we can reach it, we can drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Clapper Hill (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a full Kent Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to refill your car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill up your car. They will be able to fix any of the standard troubles which might go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries because of over-cranking.
