It was just before 7 pm on a Saturday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't given up on raining! James and me were sitting there talking over the weekend's sports results, at the ready for the sixth call that day to come in. Before long we had a phone call from a young lady on a business trip who had gone to the Shell filling garage in Hendon and put petrol in a diesel Mercedes lease car in error. The unfortunate lady was quite agitated it seemed, crying "I simply can't believe I've messed up the car! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I had forgot I was using a diesel!" We told her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that things like this unfortunately can happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a secure spot and, seeing that it was only a few minutes from the office, we were able to reach the customer fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was living at. Despite the fact that we got very wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive home calm and not so anxious. Yet another misfuel correction in Greater London done well in my books!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Hendon - Hendon Wrong Fuel Drain
Just had a great night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a gloomy Sunday and we were en route to assist an older woman who had put contaminated fuel in her diesel Dacia in Hendon. I had been informed she had left the filling station and stranded along a backwater lane on route to see her family. I got the location punched straight into the TomTom and was with her inside an hour or so. I got to the location and drained the contaminated fuel in the car car. While I was working she told me, "I am getting relatively forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the car needing diesel seeing that I had only acquired it a short while ago right after my other one, which I'd had for about thirty years, inevitably stopped working". I got the job done and she gave me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. What a delightful Greater London lady!

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we deliver.
AdBlue In Your Diesel
In Greater London we have discovered a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part a result of people not being totally sure the way to work with it (please note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to each other on the automobile.
So, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.
If in case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out at once. And most definitely never switch on the vehicle - not even to move it off of the pump. If you have started the car you would likely need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually a significant condition to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank can easily result in idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out fully, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove in comparison with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both situations pretty easily.
Bear in mind that as long as the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will be completely water-logged and unusable.
Marine Fuel Drains
In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a car parking spot we should be able to access the storage and remove the fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}
Management of Waste Fuel
Have an old fuel reservoir laying at the back of your premises full of out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and business properties in Greater London for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to access it, we are able to empty it.
Out of Fuel Support
Run out of fuel in Hendon (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a comprehensive Greater London Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill your vehicle if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) to fill up the car. They will be able to handle the usual troubles that may go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Hendon - Hendon Fuel Drain
A lady from Hendon with a full car of children in her diesel Smart had filled her car with £20 of petrol at the Shell petrol station. She phoned us crying and really upset as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel and didn't know what might happen to her car in doing so. We assured her that all should be okay and that she would be back up and running soon. When we arrived she was still distressed but as our engineer started work on the fuel drain she calmed down because she noticed that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't wrecked. She quickly brightened up and was on the road again saying, "I can't believe my luck putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Especially with the children in the back."
