It was just before 5 pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry day, it had not stopped raining! Brian and me were seated talking about the recent rugby results, at the ready for the next telephone call for the day to come in. Inevitably we had the call from a young lady on a business expedition who had gone to the Esso filling garage in Lydden and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Nissan rental in error. She was somewhat distressed by the sounds of it, stating "I can't believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling my petrol car that I totally forgot I was driving a diesel!" We told her to take it easy and not to be concerned, also that these things sadly happen. She managed to move the vehicle to a safe space and, seeing as it was only a few minutes away from where we were, we could find the woman swiftly. The incorrect fuel was taken out and she could return to the hotel she was residing at. Despite the fact we got pretty wet, it was all worth it to see her drive away relaxed and not so apprehensive. One more misfuel correction in Kent done well in my opinion!

What a fantastic night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 on a gloomy Tuesday and we were off to help an elder lady who had put petrol in her diesel Fiat in Lydden. She informed us that she had driven away from the petrol station forecourt and was stranded in a rural road along the way to see her family. I popped the location into the TomTom and was on-scene within an hour or so. I reached the location and drained the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. While I was doing it she told me, "I'm getting rather forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the car taking diesel since I'd only bought it a short while back because my former car, which I'd owned for about thirty years, eventually broke down". I got the job completed and she presented me a peppermint and said thank you. Such a delightful Kent lady!

Listed below are our top services we deliver to our clients.
AdBlue In Diesel
Throughout Kent we are identifying a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mostly a result of motorists not knowing the way to use it (take note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to each other on the vehicle.
Well, what's the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because the product is primarily deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.
Give us a call if you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will attend to all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally a serious issue to address in a vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Having water in the diesel or petrol is going to produce idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both cases rather easily.
Keep in mind however that as long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and ineffective.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured close to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}
Waste Fuel Removal
Got a fuel container laying at the rear of your garden containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and commercial properties in Kent for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in an outbuilding, provided that we can get to it, we could certainly drain it.
Re-Fueling Support
Out of fuel in Lydden (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a full Kent Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to refill the car if you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) and fill up your vehicle. They can also take care of any of the usual troubles that can come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Recent Fuel Drains in Lydden
Some of the more standard troubles we come across from many of our technicians in Lydden:
A young adult who had only got his licence had misfueled his Chevrolet by getting unleaded in the diesel vehicle at the petrol station near Lydden. He said, "This is the second time I have fuelled my car since I purchased it and I do not know how to handle it." He was anxious as his dad had just paid for the car. He found our company on the web and so called us without delay, afraid about what he needed to do. Our individual on the phones explained to him that we could be on scene inside forty five minutes and to not move the vehicle while waiting. We finished the drain on his car and he said how amazed he was that it was handled so speedily and no consequence whatsoever.

This was most definitely the night shift. It was about dawn and almost noone was around. It had become quite quiet so far, and me and John were sitting around looking at a number of old newspapers. That was an unusual peaceful hour in Kent. It was so relaxing that when my mobile eventually rang it made me start! The customer on the phone told me: "I concluded my night shift and stupidly filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Dacia by mistake". I told him to inform us where exactly he was and we left, getting to him in Lydden not as much as an hour later. The wrong fuel was taken out from the car and he thanked us for coming out so rapidly. As we were returning to the depot we found two young women on the edge of the highway who seemed like they had a puncture. As a result we stopped to help them change it, to their delight.
