A motorist conked out on a street in Harbourland needed a fuel drain around a month back. His Chevrolet was broken down roadside after he had put in the wrong fuel. He was calm when he phoned us but somewhat anxious to get his car away from the road seeing that he was generating some traffic. We got to him within a quarter-hour since our drainer was in neighbouring Harbourland and had just done a fuel drain. He said, "I don't believe I put unleaded in my diesel car and stopped here! My car was so spluttery I basically needed to stop and then it just conked."

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Kent we have seen a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly a result of people not being aware of the right way to work with it (please note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Because AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it right away. And certainly don't start up the motor - not even to relocate it off the pump. If you have started the car you may likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be a serious situation to deal with in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water inside your petrol or diesel may contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can solve both situations quite swiftly.

Bear in mind that in the event that the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will be wholly wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a car parking spot we will be able to access the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel tank in the rear of your garden with aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and commercial premises in Kent to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or even a few drums in a garage, as long as we are able to get to it, we are able to drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Harbourland (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a complete Kent Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to fill up the car if you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) to refill the car. They can also handle any of the normal problems which may accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Harbourland - Harbourland Wrong Fuel in Car

A gentleman called us from Harbourland saying he had stupidly piped unleaded in his diesel Mercedes. "I can't believe it! I can't believe I put unleaded in my beautiful diesel car!" It only took the engineer roughly 50 minutes to completely drain the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. He completely purged the fuel lines, filter and pumps and put clean diesel in the vehicle. The customer was very pleased and it hadn't cost him dealership prices to get the job professionally done.
