It was before 7 pm on a Thursday and even though we were assured a rainless day, it had not ceased raining! Paul and I were sitting there going over the recent sports results, waiting around for the 6th telephone call of the day to arrive. Finally we got the phone call from a lady on a company excursion who had arrived at the BP filling station in North Eastling and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Renault lease car. She was fairly distressed apparently, telling me "I cannot believe I've ruined the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I totally forgot I was operating a diesel!" I instructed her to settle back and not to fret, and that things like this regrettably happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle to a protected spot and, as it was no more than a short distance off from us, we were able to get to the woman without delay. The contaminated fuel was taken out and she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Although we got fairly wet, it was all rewarding to watch her drive away satisfied and less stressed. Yet another fuel drain in Kent well done in my opinion!

Our Fields of Specialties:

Here are the top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Kent we have seen more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a result of motorists not knowing the right way to to make use of (be aware: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to each other on the vehicle.

So, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

If you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it right away. And definitely be careful not to crank the engine - not even to move it off the pump. In case you did start the car you would in all probability have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious situation to address in a motor vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the diesel or petrol is likely to produce idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both situations fairly simply.

Remember though that any time the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will be wholly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a car parking spot we are able to access the tanks and remove the fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel reservoir laying in the back of your garden with unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial properties in Kent to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few containers in an outbuilding, providing we can access it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in North Eastling (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a comprehensive Kent Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to fill up your automobile in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) and refill your car. They are also able to fix any of the most common troubles which could come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Fuel Drain North Eastling - North Eastling Fuel Rescue

A guy had conked out off a road in North Eastling. His Porsche engine had stopped functioning and he had no clue what was the problem until eventually he noticed he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle. He rang us to request a fuel drain and that is when he said to us: "I cannot believe that I did not detect that I put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He stated that he had gotten very little sleep the evening before and that must have been the key reason why.
