It was about 10 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry evening, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Brian and I were resting talking about the weekend's sports results, waiting for the sixth fuel drain for the day to arrive. In due time we received a phone call from a girl on a company trip who had arrived at the Texaco petrol garage in Walters Green and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Citroen rental car. The unfortunate lady was pretty distressed apparently, telling me "I still can't believe I've wrecked the car! I am so used to filling my petrol car I had didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that things like this unfortunately can happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a protected position and, since it was no more than a few minutes from us, we were able to get to her without delay. The wrong fuel was drained so she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Although we got pretty soaked, it was all worth it to see her drive off calm and not so apprehensive. One more job in Kent well done in my opinion!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Kent we are finding increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent due to drivers not knowing how to work with it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to each other on the automobile.

So, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And certainly be careful not to start the car - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. If perhaps you did start the car you would most likely need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant condition to deal with in an automobile - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the diesel or petrol will likely cause idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both situations pretty expediently.

Bear in mind that any time the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir in the rear of your premises with unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and commercial premises in Kent to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to reach it, we can drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Walters Green (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a comprehensive Kent Out of Fuel Service. We will help to re-fill your car any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump price) and refill the car. They will take care of the usual issues which may go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Walters Green - Walters Green Wrong Fuel

The other day a gentleman telephoned us right after his Vauxhall cut out in the middle of a road in Walters Green. He had by accident put petrol in the diesel motor and drove to the road before having to stop. It was still early in the morning and our engineer, who stays close by, was with him in about 20 minutes. We were able to remove the wrong fuel and put clean diesel yet again in to the vehicle. "Thank you for your immediate response, particularly at 6 a.m., I genuinely am grateful for it."
