Wrong Fuel Assist Ide Hill - Ide Hill Vehicle Misfuel

Just had a fantastic night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a rainy Tuesday and we were off to help an older lady after she had put petrol in her diesel MINI in Ide Hill. I'd been told she had left the petrol station forecourt and was broken down in a country lane along the way to see her grandchildren. I popped her location into the Satnav and was with her in less than an hour. I reached the car and removed the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. While I was working she explained, "I have been getting relatively absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle working with diesel because I had only just got it a few days back after my other one, which I'd used for more than twenty years, eventually gave up the ghost". I finished the drain and she presented me a peppermint and said thanks a lot. Such a lovely Kent lady!

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Kent we are encountering a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partly thanks to drivers not being aware of the right way to use it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to one another on the car.

Now, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out right away. And most definitely take care not to turn over the motor - not even to maneuver it into a parking bay. In cases where you did start the car you would in all probability need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually a serious matter to address in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel can certainly contribute to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both circumstances pretty expediently.

You should know though that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will be totally water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to an automobile parking spot we will be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel tank sitting in the rear of your premises full of unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial premises in Kent to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous drums in an outbuilding, providing we can access it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Ide Hill (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a complete Kent Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to fill up the car in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home.

They will be able to fix the typical issues that could go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, as well as flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Ide Hill - Ide Hill Fuel Drain

I enjoyed a terrific evening hiking during my off day and was feeling cheerful with myself the following morning as I was en route to assist a young couple on holiday in Ide Hill. They had pulled over after inserting diesel in their MG, and the car was approximately half an hour away. I turned up at their position and smiled while I listened to the gal telling her husband off for turning out to be so stupid. "Exactly how could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I wanted to tell her that this kind of thing happens quite frequently in Kent and that it's nothing at all to fret about, nonetheless he all the same got his ear bent by his better half. I felt genuine sympathy for the lad. In any case, I removed the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave it some right fuel. As they drove down the road I mouthed bon voyage and thought about what her indoors would say to me if I did the very same thing... I'd under no circumstances live it down!
