Wrong Fuel Assist Hythe - Hythe Wrong Fuel
I had appreciated a great afternoon golfing during my off day and was feeling pleased with myself the following day as I set off to help a new couple on holiday in Hythe. They had stopped after putting diesel into their Nissan, and were roughly half an hour away. I turned up at their position and laughed to myself as I listened to the woman telling her partner off for being so confused. "Exactly how could you actually be able to fill the car up with the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I tried to clarify that this happens all the time in Kent and that it's truly absolutely nothing to get worried about, nonetheless he in spite of everything got an ear bashing. Unlucky chap. At any rate, I extracted all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and gave it some proper fuel. While watching them drive down the road I waved good-bye and pondered on what her indoors would ask me if I did the same thing... I'd never live it down!

We are all set to take the wrong fuel job.
AdBlue In your Fuel
Throughout Kent we have noticed increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partly due to drivers not knowing the right way to work with it (pay attention: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to one another on the automobile.
Well, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.
If you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely never turn over the car - not even to move it to a parking bay. In the instance that you did start the car you may likely need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious situation to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel may well trigger idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both cases quite quickly.
Keep in mind though that as long as the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and unusable.
Marine Fuel Drains
In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a car parking bay we can reach the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}
