It was just before 9 pm on a Thursday and while we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't ceased raining! Ray and I were resting there discussing the sports rankings, waiting around for the next telephone call that day to arrive. Inevitably we got the call from a woman on a business trip who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling garage in Ramsgate and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Land Rover rental by mistake. She was very affected apparently, saying "I still can't believe I've ruined the vehicle! I'm so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I told her to take it easy and not to fret, and also that things like this unfortunately happen. She managed to get the car into a protected area and, since it was just a few minutes from the office, we could find the woman without delay. The bad fuel was removed so she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was living in.

Our Areas of Experience :

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

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Kent we are encountering an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mainly as a result of people not being totally sure the right way to use it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to each other on the car.

So, precisely what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that the product is mostly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call if you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to take care of all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant condition to address in a vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel tank will often trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both circumstances pretty swiftly.

Keep in mind though that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a car parking bay we should be able to reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel tank placed in the rear of your garden containing unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and commercial premises in Kent to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or even a number of containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Ramsgate (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a comprehensive Kent Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill the car in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump prices) and fill up the car. They will deal with the most common troubles which can accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries due to over-cranking.
