If you've got petrol in your diesel car in Way we'll be glad to come out and do a thorough fuel drain. Petrol in diesel in Way need not be a huge obstacle. We're simply a phone call away.

It was after 7 pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry day, it hadn't given up on raining! Ryan and I were seated there talking about the weekend's golf rankings, waiting around for the next telephone call for the day to arrive. In due time we received the phone call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had gone to the Sainsburys filling garage in Way and filled petrol in a diesel Mitsubishi rental car. The poor lady was fairly troubled apparently, stating "I can't believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember I was running a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to fret, and also that these things unfortunately do happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a secure position and, as it was no more than a few minutes off from where we were, we could find the customer swiftly. The contaminated fuel was taken out and she could go home to the motel she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got very drenched, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive home satisfied and much less stressed. One more fuel drain in Kent done well in my mind!

We are all set to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Kent we are encountering a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is in part caused by people being unsure of the way to to make use of (take note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to one another on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Because AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out at once. And definitely don't start up the car - not even to shift it into a parking place. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will almost certainly need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question a serious issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol can easily contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both circumstances quite easily.

Take note that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated close to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container in the rear of the garden full of aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of private and industrial premises in Kent for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps numerous drums in a storage shed, as long as we can get to it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Way (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a complete Kent Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to fill up the car in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump price) to fill the car. They will be able to fix the usual issues that could go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to start, as well as flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Way - Way Petrol in Diesel

A couple of days ago a youngster telephoned us because his Hyundai stopped along a street in Way. He had mistakenly put petrol in the diesel car and got to the road before being forced to pull up. It was still early in the morning and our fuel drainer, who resides close by, reached him in approximately a quarter hour. We managed to drain the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel yet again into the car. "Thank you for your prompt response, and in particular at 4 a.m., I really am grateful for it."
