It was just before 9 pm on a Monday and while we were assured a dry afternoon, it had not given up on pouring! Brian and I were seated going over the recent sports results, waiting for the next telephone call for the day to arrive. Before long we got the phone call from a girl on a business excursion who had arrived at the BP filling garage in Gravesend and filled petrol in her diesel Mazda hire car. She was pretty troubled it seemed, telling me "I still can't believe that I have wrecked the car! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol car I had did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to worry, and that such things do happen. She managed to get the car to a safe space and, since it was only a few miles from the office, we could get to her almost instantly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she could once again go back to the hotel she was residing at. Although we got fairly soaked, it was all worth it to watch her drive away contented and not so concerned. Another fuel drain in Kent done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Kent we have encountered progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mostly a result of motorists not understanding the right way to use it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to one another on the car.

Now, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? As the product is mostly deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you discover youself to be in this position don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination business. Our technicians have the practical knowledge and working experience to have you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally a significant issue to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in fuel will often trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with properly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both situations fairly swiftly.

You should know though that as long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored near to an automobile parking bay we can access the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel reservoir laying in the rear of your premises full of old, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many private and commercial premises in Kent to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even several drums in a storage shed, assuming that we can get to it, we can empty it.

Out of fuel in Gravesend (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a full Kent Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill your car if you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home.
