It was about 8 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ryan and I were seated talking about the recent golf results, waiting for the sixth job that day to arrive. Inevitably we got a phone call from a young lady on a business excursion who had gone to the Tesco petrol station in Coombe and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Renault hire car by mistake. She was fairly affected by the sounds of it, saying "I can not believe that I've wrecked the car! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol car I totally didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to take it easy and not to fret, also that things like this sadly often happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a protected area and, seeing that it was just a short distance away from us, we were able to reach the lady without delay. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could go home to the motel she was staying in. Even though we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth it seeing her drive away relaxed and not so apprehensive. One more misfuel correction in Kent done well in my mind!

Services We Deliver:

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Kent we are noticing increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly caused by drivers not understanding the right way to work with it (remember: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to each other on the car.

So, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Because AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it asap. And obviously never start up the vehicle - not even to shift it from the pump. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you will very likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious matter to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your petrol or diesel may produce idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both circumstances quite expediently.

Take note though that so long as the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to parking bay we should be able to reach the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container placed at the back of the garden containing unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and industrial premises in Kent to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a storage shed, if we can reach it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Coombe (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a complete Kent Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to re-fill the car in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) and fill your car or truck. They can also fix the standard troubles that can go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.
