It was about 9 pm on a Wednesday and although we were promised a dry day, it hadn't given up on raining! Brian and me were resting talking about the golf rankings, waiting around for the next fuel drain to arrive. Before long we received a call from a young lady on a company excursion who had gone to the Esso filling station in Felderland and filled petrol in a diesel Honda hire car. She was rather distressed it seemed, crying "I just can't believe that I've ruined the car! I'm just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I totally forgot that I was operating a diesel!" We instructed her to settle back and not to fret, and also that things like this sadly happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a secure position and, seeing as it was only a few minutes off from where we were, we were able to get to her right away. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was living at. Although we got really drenched, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive home contented and much less worried. One more fuel drain in Kent well done in my mind!

AdBlue Contamination

All around Kent we have noticed progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to some extent stemming from drivers not being aware of how to use it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to one another on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

In case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained asap. And most definitely never switch on the vehicle - not even to shift it into a parking spot. Assuming you did start the vehicle you will probably have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is certainly a serious issue to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol is likely to result in idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with fully, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both circumstances rather expediently.

Keep in mind though that so long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will likely be totally wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored close to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container placed in the rear of your garden with aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several domestic and commercial properties in Kent to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few drums in a garage, as long as we can access it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Felderland (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a comprehensive Kent Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill your car in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) to refill your car or truck. They can also deal with the usual troubles that can go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even dead batteries due to over-cranking.
