Services We Deliver:

We can help you with these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Kent we are encountering a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mainly as a result of drivers not understanding the right way to work with it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

Give us a call in the event that you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to fix all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant matter to address in an automobile - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your diesel or petrol will likely bring about idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out than water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both circumstances quite quickly.

Remember however that if ever the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a car parking spot we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir in the rear of the garden containing out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and commercial premises in Kent to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to get to it, we are able to empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in The Down (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a full Kent Out of Fuel Service. We will come to fill up your vehicle in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump prices) and refill the car. They are also able to deal with any of the common troubles that could come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car The Down - The Down Wrong Fuel in Car

A man phoned us from The Down to state that he unfortunately piped unleaded in his diesel Nissan. "What a nightmare! How could I put unleaded in my lovely diesel car!" It took the engineer around 50 minutes to completely drain the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. He completely cleaned the fuel system and after that put clean diesel in the car. The customer was happy and it didn't cost him dealership prices to have the work properly performed.

Recent Fuel Drains in The Down

Various reports:

I'm not ever very hot for doing work Sundays, and a couple weeks ago was no different. I had only just departed the wife and kids after eating a lovely lunch cooked by the missus, and I was on the way to help a gentleman who filled the wrong fuel in his Audi. He was somewhere in The Down thus I arrived with him quickly. Just as I pulled up at the car and got out he explained to me "Praise God! I had my attention on other things and failed to realise I had put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Have I inflicted some harm through driving it?" I determined that there probably should not be any kind of damage and also that I'd remove the contaminated fuel as quickly as possible. Obviously I drained the wrong fuel from the vehicle and put in the correct fuel, and so another content motorist was able to carry on with their ride without any hassle. He did not stop saying thanks to me, and that is what can make carrying out work on Sundays in Kent a little bit less painful in my opinion!

Petrol in Diesel The Down - The Down Wrong Fuel

This really was the graveyard shift. It was roughly 2:30 in the morning and noone was around. It was pretty quiet so far, and me and Ryan were loafing about perusing a few old magazines. This was an uncommon calm time in Kent. It was so quiet that when my mobile inevitably rang I jumped! The voice stated: "I have finished my evening shift and incredibly put petrol in the diesel Volvo in error". We asked him to tell us just where he was and we left, reaching him in The Down under an hour or so later. The fuel was removed from the vehicle. He said many thanks for showing up so promptly. As we were heading back home we spotted two women at the edge of the highway who seemed to have a puncture. As a result we stopped to change it, much to their elation.

Wrong Fuel in Car The Down - The Down Fuel Removal

I'd had a great evening golfing during my holiday and felt cheerful with myself the following morning as I was on the way to assist a young family on holiday in The Down. They'd conked out after inserting the wrong fuel in their Renault, and the car was close to half an hour away. I got there at their location and laughed to myself as I heard to the girl telling her partner off for being so silly. "Exactly how could you even find a way to fill the vehicle up with the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to explain that this situation happens frequently in Kent and that it is nothing at all to worry about, and yet he in spite of everything had an earful by his wife. Unfortunate guy. Anyways, I extracted all the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the proper fuel. As they drove down the road I mouthed bon voyage and wondered what her indoors would do to me in the event that I did the same thing... I would personally never hear the end of it!
