It was just before 10 pm on a Monday and while we were assured a rainless afternoon, it had not given up on pouring! Ray and I were sitting talking about the golf, waiting for the next telephone call of the day to arrive. Before long we had the phone call from a girl on a business trip who had gone to the Shell petrol station in Strood and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Mercedes lease car. The unfortunate lady was fairly agitated by the sounds of it, stating "I still can't believe that I have ruined the car! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol car I completely forgot I was running a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to fret, also that these things sadly can happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a safe spot and, since it was only a few minutes off from our van, we could get to the woman quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she was able to return to the Travelodge she was residing in. Although we got fairly wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away contented and a lot less anxious. One more job in Kent done well in my books!

Services We Offer:

This is what we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

How to proceed in the event that you may have poured Adblue in a Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that is made from a mix of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%).Adblue is certainly devastating to your car's fuel system, specifically any time you have had the engine running with Adblue in the tank. Once the engine has been switched on the Adblue will be pushed into your fuel lines and will quickly start to crystalise, leading to devastating and expensive problems to your car's fuel system.

In the case you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained at once. And obviously never turn over the car - not even to maneuver it to a parking place. In the event that you did start the vehicle you would in all likelihood have to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally a significant matter to deal with in an automobile - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in fuel can easily produce idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both situations rather easily.

Be aware though that if ever the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}
