Wrong Fuel in Car Southborough, Kent

Our Areas of Competence :

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Kent we have encountered increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mainly caused by motorists being unsure of the way to use it (note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to one another on the car.

Now, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it's as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Should you discover youself to be in this predicament do not panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination service. Our engineers have the specialised expertise and experience to get you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a serious matter to handle in a vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel tank is going to contribute to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed effectively, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of than water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both cases pretty expediently.

Remember however that whenever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a vehicle parking bay we can access the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir at the back of your premises with aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial properties in Kent to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps some drums in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to get to it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Southborough (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a comprehensive Kent Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up the car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) to refill your car. They can also deal with the normal issues which might go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Southborough - Southborough Wrong Fuel

I had enjoyed a terrific day fishing on my off day and felt pleased the following morning as I was en route to assist a new couple on holiday in Southborough. They'd pulled over after filling the wrong fuel into their Jaguar, and were roughly half an hour's drive away. I got there at their position and laughed as I listened to the gal telling off her partner for being so silly. "How could you even be able to fill the car up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to explain that this situation takes place constantly in Kent and that it's really nothing to worry about, but he in spite of everything had an ear bashing by his better half. I felt sorry for the boy. Anyway, I drained out all of the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and gave it some right fuel. As they drove off I shouted so long and pondered on what my wife would do to me if ever I did the same thing... I'd personally never hear the end of it!

Recent Fuel Drains in Southborough

Testimonies from our own Southborough team:

I am not excessively excited about doing work weekends, and a week ago was no different. I had just come away from the wife and kids filled with a magnificent roast made for me by the missus, and I was off to deal with a gentleman after he had put the incorrect fuel in his Volvo. He was stationed in Southborough hence I arrived there almost immediately. Just as I pulled up at the car and stepped out he explained to me "Praise the Almighty! I incredibly had my attention on other considerations and failed to grasp that I'd put diesel in my petrol car. I need to know if I caused damage simply by driving it?" I revealed that truth be told there shouldn't be harm and also I'd get the wrong fuel drained as soon as possible. As expected I removed the wrong fuel from the car and filled up with the appropriate fuel, and so yet another content client could continue on their journey without the fuss. The gentleman did not stop saying thanks to me, and that is actually what makes working on weekends in Kent that little better in my opinion!

Fuel Removal Southborough - Southborough Vehicle Misfuel

A woman from Southborough with her little ones in her diesel Toyota had put £42 of petrol at the BP service station. She contacted us weeping and really upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel car and didn't know what could happen to her car in doing so. We reassured her that the car would be fine and that she would be up and running quickly. When we arrived on scene she was visible upset but as our technician started work on the fuel drain she calmed down since she saw that help was at hand and her car wasn't wrecked. She soon brightened up and was on the road again saying, "I simply can't believe my misfortune putting petrol in my diesel car! Especially with the youngsters in the back."
