It was just after 5 pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry evening, it had not ceased raining! Brian and I were resting there commenting on the recent tennis rankings, waiting for the 8th call that day to come in. Eventually we got the phone call from a woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the BP petrol station in Fordwich and put petrol in her diesel Volvo rental car by mistake. She was rather agitated it seemed, telling me "I simply cannot believe that I have messed up the car! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol car I completely didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I just instructed her to settle back and not to fret, and also that these things unfortunately can happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a protected area and, because it was only a few miles from us, we could reach the lady fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was lodging in.

Our Fields of Specialties: Services We Offer:

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Kent we have identified an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of people not knowing how 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 right close to one another on the vehicle.

So, what's the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that the product is mainly ionised water, it's just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Should you discover youself to be in this position do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination company. Our experts have the technical skills and experience to have you back on your way promptly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious situation to address in an automobile - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the diesel or petrol will likely lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both situations pretty easily.

You should know that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will be completely wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked close to a car parking spot we can reach the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir in the back of your garden with unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many domestic and industrial properties in Kent for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even some drums in a storage shed, as long as we are able to get to it, we can empty it.

Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Fordwich (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a complete Kent Run Out of Fuel Service. We will come to refill the car in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and refill your vehicle. They will fix the most common troubles that might go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Fordwich - Fordwich Vehicle Misfuel

Last monday a customer telephoned us because his Vauxhall stopped on a street in Fordwich. He had accidentally put unleaded in the diesel motor and drove to the street before having to pull over. It was in the early hours of the day and our fuel drainer, who resides close by, was with him in approximately a quarter hour. We were able to remove the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel yet again in to the car. "Sincere kudos to you for your immediate response, and in particular at 5 a.m., I genuinely appreciate it."
