It was just after 10 pm on a Wednesday and though we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Brian and I were relaxing going over the recent football, waiting around for the sixth fuel drain for the day to arrive. Eventually we had the call from a lady on a company trip who had gone to the Tesco petrol station in Tenterden and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Skoda rental car. The poor thing was somewhat troubled apparently, saying "I can not believe that I have ruined the car! I am just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car I completely did not remember I was operating a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that things like this sadly often happen. She had managed to get the car into a safe position and, seeing as it was just a few miles off from us, we could get to her almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was taken out and she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was living in. Even though we got extremely soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive home satisfied and much less apprehensive. A job in Kent done well in my books!

Helping you get back on the road is our main goal.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Kent we are encountering progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is in part stemming from people not being aware of the right way to to make use of (important: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to each other on the automobile.

Well, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing as the product is mainly deionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you discover youself to be in this scenario do not panic! Call us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination company. Our experts have got the practical know-how and experience to have you back on the road promptly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant matter to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol may well bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not remedied correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both cases quite easily.

You should know that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a vehicle parking spot we can gain access to the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

We have been called out to many domestic and commercial properties in Kent to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a storage shed, providing we are able to access it, we can drain it for you.
