It was just before 5 pm on a Thursday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh night, it hadn't stopped pouring! James and I were sitting there going over the recent golf results, waiting for the 6th job that day to come in. Finally we had a call from a girl on a business excursion who had pulled into the Esso petrol station in Shadoxhurst and put petrol in a diesel BMW hire car in error. She was quite distressed apparently, stating "I simply can't believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm so used to putting petrol in my petrol car that I totally did not remember I was running a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that these things unfortunately often happen. She was able to get the vehicle to a safe area and, since it was just a short distance from the office, we could get to her fairly quickly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could return to the hotel she was residing at. Even though we got very soaked, it was all worth the time to see her drive home satisfied and much less apprehensive. Yet another fuel drain in Kent well done in my books!

Fuel Rescue Shadoxhurst - Shadoxhurst Wrong Fuel Doctor
Ahhh, that was a great night of sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a sunny Monday and we were on the way to assist an elder woman after she had put petrol in her diesel MG in Shadoxhurst. I'd been told she had driven away from the filling station forecourt and was stranded on a country lane en route to pay a visit to her godchildren. I popped her location in the TomTom and arrived inside 60 minutes. I turned up at the destination and extracted the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was doing the drain she said, "I'm becoming rather absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the car needing diesel because I had only just purchased it a week back right after my previous one, which I'd had for more than 30 years, eventually broke down". I completed the job and she gifted me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. Such a precious Kent lady!

Our Areas of Experience :
We are ready to take the wrong fuel work.
AdBlue In Your Diesel
What you can do in the event that you may have put Adblue in a Diesel tank? Adblue is certainly disastrous to your car's fuel system, especially if you started the car with Adblue in your tank. The moment the engine has been switched on the Adblue will undoubtedly be squirted into the fuel lines and will promptly begin to crystalise, resulting in serious and expensive damage to your car's fuel system.
Assuming you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely be careful not to start the engine - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In case you did start the car you would probably have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Having water inside your diesel or petrol may contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied fully, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both situations pretty expediently.
Bear in mind however that any time the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will likely be totally wet and unusable.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to parking bay we are able to reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

A driver from Shadoxhurst with a full car of youngsters in her diesel Skoda had put £50 of petrol at the Co Op station. She contacted us crying and really upset as she had never wrong fuelled previously and didn't know what might happen to her car because of it. We reassured her that the car should be fine and that she would be back in action soon. When we arrived she was still distressed but as our engineer started work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she saw that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't unfixable. She quickly brightened up and was on the road again saying, "I can't believe my bad luck putting petrol in my diesel car! Particularly with the little ones in the back."
