It was just before 5 pm on a Monday and although we were assured a dry evening, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Paul and I were relaxing going over the weekend's rugby rankings, waiting around for the 6th call that day to come in. Finally we received a phone call from a young lady on a company trip who had arrived at the Shell petrol station in Groves and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Skoda rental car by mistake. She was rather troubled apparently, telling me "I simply can't believe I have ruined the car! I am just so used to filling my petrol car I had did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that these things unfortunately happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a safe position and, seeing that it was just a short distance from where we were, we were able to arrive at the customer fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was drained so she could once again go back to the motel she was lodging at. Although we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth the effort to see her drive home contented and a lot less apprehensive. A misfuel correction in Kent well done in my opinion!

Services We Give:

Below are our top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue In Diesel

What you should do if you?ve put Adblue into a Diesel tank? AdBlue is a chemical made of a mixture of urea (32.5%) and deionized water.Adblue can be devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, especially any time you have had the engine running with Adblue in the diesel tank. The moment the engine has been started up the Adblue will likely be dragged into the fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, causing devastating and expensive harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

If you find you put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it asap. And of course don't switch on the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking place. If perhaps you have started the car you would in all likelihood have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant situation to handle in a car - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in diesel or petrol is likely to bring about idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both situations pretty simply.

Keep in mind however that if the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one is going to be completely wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel tank placed in the rear of your garden containing unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous domestic and industrial premises in Kent to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or even several containers in a garage, providing we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Groves (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a comprehensive Kent Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to refill your vehicle if you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and refill your car or truck. They are also able to fix any of the typical problems that could accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe dead batteries because of over-cranking.
