Petrol in Diesel Lydd - Lydd Wrong Fuel in Car

What a fantastic night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 am on a rainy Sunday and I was en route to help an old lovely lady who put contaminated fuel in her diesel Skoda in Lydd. She told us that she had left the filling station and broken down on a country lane along the way to visit her grandchildren. I got her location punched into the Satnav and arrived within 60 minutes. I turned up at the destination and removed the contaminated fuel from the car. As I was working she told me, "I'm becoming fairly forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle using diesel because I'd only purchased it a week ago after my former car, which I had for about 25 years, eventually stopped working". I got the drain done and she offered me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. What a precious Kent woman!

Do you or your employees often misfuel your vehicle? We can resolve any connected issues.

AdBlue Contamination

In Kent we are finding more and more examples of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly a result of drivers not being aware of the way to to make use of (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right adjacent to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? As the product is mostly ionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

Give us a call if you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to correct all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually an important issue to take care of in an automobile - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol is likely to result in idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can handle both cases pretty easily.

Keep in mind though that if the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will be thoroughly wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to an automobile parking bay we should be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel container in the back of the garden with unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many domestic and industrial properties in Kent to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps some drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we can reach it, we can certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Lydd (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a full Kent Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill your automobile if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump price) to fill your car. They will take care of any of the typical troubles that may come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.


Fuel Removal Lydd - Lydd Wrong Fuel

I'd had a perfect afternoon hiking on my day off and felt pleased the next day as I set out to help a young couple away in Lydd. They stopped after filling the wrong fuel into their SEAT, and they were about half an hour's drive away. I arrived at their car and laughed as I heard to the lady telling her spouse off for actually being so daft. "Just how could you actually be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I tried to tell her that this situation goes on quite frequently in Kent and that it's nothing to worry about, but he still had an ear bashing by his wife. Poor guy. At any rate, I removed the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. While watching them drive away I mouthed hasta la vista and wondered what her indoors would tell me in the event that I made the same error... I'd under no circumstances live it down!


Recent Fuel Drains in Lydd

Several examples:

A teenager who had recently passed his test had misfueled his MINI by getting petrol in his diesel vehicle at the petrol station close to Lydd. He said, "This is the third occasion I have filled up my car from the time when I got it and I don't know what to do." He was scared because his father had just got him the car. He located us on the internet and so called us right away, scared about what he ought to do. Our person on the call told him that we could be on scene in 45 minutes and to not touch the car while waiting. We finished the drain on his vehicle and he stated how impressed he was it was addressed so rapidly and with not much complication .

Fuel Removal Lydd - Lydd Wrong Fuel in Car

A woman living in Lydd contacted us as soon as she had tried to get her wrong fuelled automobile to work. She had put petrol in her diesel SEAT and, like many before her, thought that she would be able to simply top up her car with diesel and it'd be no problem. The engine was chugging and then it stopped when she reached the the front of her office. We promptly went to work on the fuel drain after she called and got it fixed inside one hour whilst she was in the office. She came out when we finished and thanked us stating, "I'm extremely delighted you sorted my car."

Vehicle Misfuel Lydd - Lydd Fuel Removal

A motorist had stopped off a road in Lydd. His Mitsubishi engine had ceased working and he had no idea what was the problem until eventually he realised he put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He phoned us to request a fuel drain and that is when he told us: "I can't believe that I did not detect that I had put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had got no sleep the day before and that must have been the reason why.
