It was just after 9 pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! Dan and I were relaxing commenting on the recent golf, prepared for the sixth job that day to come in. Finally we got a call from a young lady on a company expedition who had pulled into the Esso filling garage in Sandwich and filled petrol in a diesel Mitsubishi lease car. The poor lady was pretty distressed it seemed, telling me "I can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I had forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I just told her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that these things often happen. She was able to relocate the car to a safe position and, seeing as it was just a few miles away from where we were, we could find the lady swiftly. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she was able to return to the motel she was residing at. Despite the fact we got fairly wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive away contented and much less worried. One more job in Kent done well in my books!

Our Areas of Specialties: Services We Provide:

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Kent we have seen an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree as a consequence of drivers not being totally sure the right way to use it (note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to each other on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that the product is mostly deionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

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

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol can certainly cause idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both circumstances fairly easily.

Remember however that if the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to an automobile parking bay we should be able to access the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel reservoir placed at the rear of your premises full of old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and business properties in Kent to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in an outbuilding, providing we can reach it, we can drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Sandwich (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a full Kent Out of Fuel Service. We can come to fill up your automobile if you are stuck on a 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 (bought at pump prices) and fill up your vehicle. They will be able to handle the common troubles that might go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries because of over-cranking.
