Wrong Fuel Catford - Catford Fuel Rescue

I had enjoyed a fantastic afternoon hiking on my day off and was feeling satisfied with myself the following working day as I set out to help a young family who were on vacation in Catford. They had broken down after inserting petrol in their Jaguar, and they were around an hour away. I arrived at their position and smiled to myself as I listened to the girl telling her husband off for being so daft. "Just how could you even be able to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to explain that this situation occurs on daily basis in Lewisham and that it's absolutely nothing to worry about, and yet he yet still had an ear bashing. Unfortunate chap. At any rate, I extracted the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. Watching them drive off I mouthed good bye and wondered what my wife would tell me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I'd personally never live it down!

Services We Offer:

Do you or your employees usually misfuel your car? We can resolve any related issues.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Lewisham we are finding a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly stemming from motorists not knowing the right way to use it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to each other on the automobile.

Well, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

Phone us in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can attend to every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant issue to address in a car - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol will produce idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove than water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both cases quite swiftly.

You should know though that any time the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will likely be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a car parking spot we can gain access to the storage and drain out the fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel tank in the back of your garden containing unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many private and business properties in Lewisham to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even several containers in an outbuilding, providing we can get to it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Catford (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a complete Lewisham Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to re-fill your car in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at pump prices) and fill your vehicle. They will be able to deal with the most common problems that may go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries due to over-cranking.

A motorist working in Catford called us after she had managed to get her misfueled car to the office. She had put unleaded in her diesel Volvo and, like countless prior to her, assumed that she could simply fill up her vehicle with diesel and it'd run alright. The vehicle was coughing and then it died when she reached the entrance of her office. We quickly went to work on the fuel drain after she called and had it resolved inside one hour whilst she was at the office. She came outside afterwards and thanked us stating, "I'm very delighted you sorted my vehicle."
