Wrong Fuel in Car The Down - The Down Wrong Fuel in Car

What a quality night's sleep! It was 7:00 am on a warm Saturday and we were on my way to help an old lovely lady after she put the wrong fuel in her diesel BMW in The Down. She informed us that she had left the petrol station and stranded in a country road on route to see her godchildren. I got the location punched straight into the Satnav and was with her inside an hour or so. I turned up at the car and removed the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. While I was doing the drain she said to me, "I am getting quite forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle using diesel because I'd only purchased it a week back right after my other one, which I'd owned for more than 25 years, eventually broke down". I got the job completed and she presented me a toffee and thanked me for my efforts. Such a delightful Kent woman!

Services We Give:

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we provide.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Kent we have noticed progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by motorists not understanding the way to to make use of (remember: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Contact us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can take care of every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant issue to deal with in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel will contribute to idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both circumstances very quickly.

You should know that as long as the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will likely be totally wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to parking bay we can gain access to the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container lying at the back of the garden full of aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous private and industrial premises in Kent to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous drums in an outbuilding, as long as we can reach it, we can certainly drain it.

Now I am not ever so inclined to doing work on Sundays, and a while back was no different.

He was located in The Down thus it wouldn't be long before I reached him. As I pulled up at the vehicle and started work he told me "Praise God! I incredibly had my mind on stuff and failed to realise I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Have I brought on any kind of problems through driving it?" I stated that there probably should not be damage and also I would get the fuel drained quickly. Needless to say I removed the wrong fuel from the car and filled up with the appropriate fuel, and thus another happy client had the ability to continue on their journey with no fuss. He did not stop thanking me, and this is actually what helps make working on Sundays in Kent just a little bit better in my opinion!
