It was about 6 pm on a Monday and even though we were guaranteed a dry evening, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Dan and I were sitting talking over the weekend's rugby rankings, prepared for the 6th call that day to arrive. In due time we got the call from a young lady on a business trip who had gone to the Tesco filling station in Deptford and filled petrol in her diesel Kia hire car by mistake. She was rather distressed apparently, saying "I can not believe I have wrecked the car! I'm so used to filling my petrol vehicle I completely forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to calm down and not to fret, and that these things regrettably happen. She had managed to maneuver the car into a safe position and, because it was only a few minutes from the office, we were able to reach the lady right away. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to go home to the motel she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got pretty drenched, it was all worth it seeing her drive away relaxed and not so stressed. Yet another job in Lewisham done well in my opinion!

Services We Give:

Below are our top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Lewisham we are identifying a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially caused by drivers not understanding the way to use it (pay attention: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to each other on the car.

Now, what is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As the product is predominantly deionised water, it is almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it asap. And most definitely never crank the engine - not even to shift it off of the pump. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you would likely need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a significant situation to take care of in an automobile - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel may well cause idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both circumstances pretty easily.

Keep in mind though that whenever the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will likely be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near to an automobile parking bay we can access the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank lying in the back of the garden containing unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of private and commercial properties in Lewisham to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a number of drums in a garage, provided that we can reach it, we are able to drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Deptford (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a full Lewisham Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to refill your vehicle if you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump prices) to fill the car. They can also take care of any of the usual problems which can go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Deptford - Deptford Wrong Fuel Assist

A woman from Deptford with a full car of little ones in her diesel Toyota had filled her car with £50 of petrol at the Co Op filling station. She phoned us crying and very distraught as she had never put petrol in a diesel previously and didn't know what would happen to her vehicle . We told her that all should be okay and that she would be up and running soon. When we got there she was still distressed but while our fuel drainer began work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she saw that help was at hand and her car wasn't unfixable. She soon enough brightened up and was on her way saying, "I just can't believe my misfortune putting petrol in my diesel car! Especially with the children in the back."
