It was just before ten pm on a Friday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were resting discussing the rugby rankings, prepared for the next telephone call for the day to arrive. In due time we got a call from a lovely women on a company trip who had gone to the Tesco filling garage in Cranford and put petrol in her diesel Vauxhall hire car in error. She was somewhat irritated apparently, stating "I can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am so used to filling up my petrol car that I had didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to fret, also that such things unfortunately can happen. She was able to relocate the car to a protected space and, since it was no more than a few minutes off from us, we could reach the woman quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out and she could go home to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Although we got extremely wet, it was all worthwhile to see her drive away relaxed and a lot less stressed. Another job in Hounslow done well in my opinion!

We are willing to take the wrong fuel job.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Hounslow we are finding an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly thanks to drivers not being aware of the way to to make use of (be aware: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

In case you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out right away. And certainly never start the motor - not even to maneuver it from the pump. In case you did start the car you will likely have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually a significant issue to deal with in an automobile - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel tank can easily bring about idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both cases pretty easily.

Remember though that so long as the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will likely be completely wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

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

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container placed at the rear of your premises containing out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and business premises in Hounslow for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several drums in a shed, as long as we can reach it, we can certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Cranford (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a comprehensive Hounslow Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to fill up your car in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home.
