Eventually we got the call from a girl on a business expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol station in Edenbridge and put petrol in a diesel SEAT hire car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was fairly agitated apparently, saying "I simply can't believe I've messed up the vehicle!

I had been advised she had left the petrol station forecourt and broken down in a rural road on the way to visit her godchildren. I got her location punched in the TomTom and was on-scene in less than an hour. I arrived at the vehicle and drained the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. As I was doing the drain she explained, "Now I'm getting quite forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle working with diesel since I had just purchased it a week ago when my old car, which I'd used for more than 25 years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I finished the job and she gave me a Murray mint and said thanks a lot. What a pleasant Kent lady!

They broken down after filling petrol into their Renault, and were about an hour away. I turned up at their location and laughed to myself while I listened to the lady chastising her hubby for actually being so daft. "Just how could you possibly find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I attempted to tell her that this problem comes to pass on daily basis in Kent and that it's really absolutely nothing to fret about, nonetheless he still had his ear bent by his wife. I felt sorry for the boy. Anyhow, I drained out all the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and gave them some correct fuel. Watching them drive away I shouted hasta la vista and wondered what her indoors would do to me if I made the very same mistake... I would personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we offer.
AdBlue Contamination
All around Kent we have found more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a result of drivers being unsure of the right way to work with it (note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.
Now, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? As AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.
In the event that you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely don't turn over the motor - not even to relocate it from the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you may in all probability need to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be a serious issue to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel will contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can solve both situations very swiftly.
Bear in mind that if the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and useless.
Marine Fuel Drains
If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out.

I had enjoyed a fantastic day golfing during my holiday and felt delighted the next working day as I set off to aid a new family who were holidaying in Edenbridge. They'd conked out after adding petrol into their Chevrolet, and were close to an hour away. I got there at their car and laughed to myself as I listened to the lady telling her partner off for being so foolish. "Just how could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I attempted to clarify that this kind of thing comes to pass everyday in Kent and that it's nothing at all to fret about, even so he still got an earful by his better half. Unlucky lad. In any case, I drained out all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave it some appropriate fuel. While watching them drive down the road I mouthed good-bye and wondered what her indoors would say to me if I made the exact same mistake... I'd personally never ever live it down!
