It was about 5 pm on a Monday and even though we were promised a dry day, it hadn't ceased raining! Paul and I were seated commenting on the rugby results, at the ready for the next job for the day to arrive. In due time we got a call from a lady on a company excursion who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol garage in Tonbridge and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Ford hire car in error. The poor thing was fairly irritated it seemed, crying "I cannot believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I totally didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to fret, and that such things happen. She managed to relocate the car into a safe area and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes off from the office, we could arrive at her almost instantly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could once again go back to the motel she was residing in. Although we got really drenched, it was all rewarding to see her drive away calm and less worried. A fuel drain in Kent well done in my mind!

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

How to proceed if you have put Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that?s made from a blend of deionized water and urea.It is definitely damaging to your automobile's fuel system, particularly in cases where you run the engine with Adblue in your diesel tank. Once the engine has been started the Adblue will undoubtedly be pushed into your fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, triggering catastrophic and costly problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

In the event that you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And obviously do not start up the vehicle - not even to shift it into a parking place. In cases where you did start the car you will most likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important matter to handle in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel can potentially cause idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both circumstances quite simply.

Take note however that if the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a car or truck parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel container laying in the back of your premises with unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and industrial properties in Kent for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even a few containers in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to reach it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Tonbridge (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a comprehensive Kent Out of Fuel Service. We will come to re-fill the car if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at cost) and fill up your automobile. They can also handle any of the normal issues that may go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Tonbridge - Tonbridge Fuel Removal

I enjoyed a perfect evening fishing on the weekend and felt delighted the following day as I set off to aid a young couple on holiday in Tonbridge. They'd stopped after filling petrol in their Vauxhall, and they were around half an hour's travel away. I turned up at their location and smirked as I listened to the lady chastising her man for actually being so daft. "Just how could you even find a way to fill the vehicle up using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I tried to explain that this kind of thing occurs all the time in Kent and that it's absolutely nothing to get worried about, and yet he yet still got his ear bent by his better half. Poor guy. Anyway, I drained all the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave them some right fuel. While they drove off I shouted so long and considered what my wife would do to me if ever I did the same thing... I'd never live it down!
