It was around six pm on a Saturday and while we were assured a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ray and I were resting there commenting on the weekend's tennis, ready for the 8th telephone call of the day to come in. Inevitably we got the call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had gone to the Esso petrol station in Upton and filled petrol in a diesel MINI rental car in error. She was pretty irritated apparently, telling me "I still cannot believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with filling my petrol car I completely didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to worry, also that things like this do happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a secure space and, because it was only a few minutes from the office, we could get to the lady quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got pretty soaked, it was all rewarding seeing her drive home calm and less stressed. A misfuel correction in Kent well done in my mind!

Services We Offer:

Listed here are the top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

How to proceed in case you may have poured Adblue into your Diesel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that?s made of a mixture of high-purity ionized water (67.5%) and urea (32.5%).Adblue is certainly harmful to your automobile's fuel system, especially any time you run the engine with Adblue in the diesel tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the Adblue is going to be pushed into your fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, leading to devastating and expensive damage to your car's fuel system.

Assuming you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained right away. And definitely never start up the engine - not even to relocate it to a parking area. In the instance that you did start the car you would almost certainly need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important issue to take care of in a car - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol can certainly produce idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied fully, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both circumstances pretty simply.

Keep in mind that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one is going to be totally wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a car or truck parking bay we can gain access to the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}
