It was about six pm on a Thursday and although we were promised a rainless evening, it had not given up on pouring! Brian and I were resting discussing the football, prepared for the 8th fuel drain that day to arrive. Inevitably we received a call from a lovely women on a business trip who had pulled into the Shell petrol garage in Highstead and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Fiat hire car. She was quite agitated apparently, crying "I simply cannot believe that I have wrecked the car! I am so used to filling my petrol car I completely forgot I was driving a diesel!" I told her to settle back and not to worry, and that things like this regrettably happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle into a secure spot and, since it was no more than a short distance from where we were, we were able to arrive at her quickly. The incorrect fuel was removed and she could get back to the hotel she was staying in. Although we got pretty soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive home contented and a lot less concerned. A misfuel correction in Kent done well in my books!

Do you or your drivers often misfuel your car? We can solve any related issues.
AdBlue In Your Diesel
How to handle it in the event that you?ve poured Adblue into your Diesel tank? AdBlue is a liquid composed of a mix of urea and ionized water.Adblue is definitely devastating to your car's fuel system, particularly if you have had the engine running with Adblue in the diesel tank. As soon as the engine has been started up the Adblue will be pushed into your fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, causing disastrous and costly harm to your car's fuel system.
Assuming you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out right away. And absolutely never start up the motor - not even to maneuver it into a parking area. In the instance that you did start the car you will very likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly a significant situation to address in a car - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water inside your diesel or petrol is likely to result in idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both circumstances pretty simply.
Bear in mind however that so long as the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and ineffective.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to reach the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

We've been called out to numerous domestic and business properties in Kent to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages.

Recent Fuel Drains in Highstead
Stories from our Highstead employees:
A teenager who had only just got his licence had wrong fuelled his MINI by having petrol in his diesel car at the station in Highstead. He said, "This is the second occasion I have put fuel in my vehicle from the time when I bought it and I have no clue of how to handle it." He was also scared as his dad had only just paid for the car. He came across us on the internet and so called it without delay, afraid about what he needed to do. Our guy on the telephones told him that we would be there inside forty five minutes and to not do anything to the car while waiting. We did the fuel drain on his car and he said how surprised he was it was handled so quickly and with not much consequence whatsoever.
Vehicle Misfuel Highstead - Highstead Vehicle Misfuel
A young lady from Highstead with a full car of kids in her diesel Lexus had filled her car with £45 of petrol at the Tesco station. She phoned us crying and very distraught as she had never put petrol in a diesel car and did not know what would happen to her vehicle . We assured her that everything should be okay and that she would be on the road very quickly. When we got there she was visible distressed but while our technician began work on the fuel drain she calmed down because she saw that something could be done and her car wasn't unfixable. She soon brightened up and was up and running saying, "I simply can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Particularly with the little ones in the back."
