It was just after seven pm on a Wednesday and while we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't ceased raining! Paul and I were sitting commenting on the weekend's footy rankings, waiting around for the 6th fuel drain for the day to come in. In due time we received a phone call from a young lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Esso petrol garage in Luton and put petrol in her diesel Nissan hire car. She was pretty distressed it seemed, crying "I just can't believe I've wrecked the car! I'm just so used to filling my petrol vehicle I had forgot I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to relax and not to worry, also that such things sadly can happen. She had managed to move the car into a safe spot and, seeing that it was only a short distance away from where we were, we could arrive at her fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was drained and she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was living in. Although we got really soaked, it was all rewarding to watch her drive away calm and not so concerned. Yet another job in Kent well done in my books!

Do you or your drivers often misfuel your vehicle? We can resolve any connected problems.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Kent we have noticed progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partially due to motorists not being totally sure the right way to use it (note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to each other on the automobile.

Well, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that the product is primarily deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And most certainly take care not to turn over the car - not even to maneuver it to a parking place. In case you did start the vehicle you may most likely need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly an important issue to address in an automobile - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Having water inside your petrol or diesel is going to lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both circumstances quite easily.

Remember however that whenever the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one is going to be wholly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a car parking bay we are able to gain access to the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir laying at the rear of your premises full of unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and business premises in Kent for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few drums in a storage shed, provided that we are able to reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Luton (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a full Kent Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to re-fill the car in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and fill your automobile. They will deal with any of the typical issues which could go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Luton - Luton Wrong Fuel

A man had broken down just off a road in Luton. His Suzuki motor had ceased working and he had no clue what was faulty till he noticed he put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He called us to request a fuel drain and it was then when he informed us: "I can not believe that I did not realise that I put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had got very little sleep the evening before and that must have been the reason.
