It was about ten pm on a Saturday and even though we were promised a dry and fresh night, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and I were relaxing there talking about the football, waiting for the 6th fuel drain of the day to come in. In due time we had the phone call from a girl on a company trip who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol garage in Havering-atte-Bower and put petrol in her diesel Hyundai rental car in error. She was very irritated apparently, crying "I simply can't believe that I have ruined the car! I'm so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to relax and not to fret, and also that such things unfortunately do happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a secure area and, seeing that it was just a few miles away from us, we could reach the lady quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to get back to the motel she was living in. Even though we got extremely soaked, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away satisfied and a lot less anxious. One more misfuel correction in Havering well done in my opinion!

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we provide.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Havering we are finding increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a degree due to people not being totally sure how to work with it (please note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to one another on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And of course do not start up the vehicle - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In the event that you have started the car you would almost certainly need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important matter to address in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel will bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain than water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both circumstances quite quickly.

Be aware that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will probably be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to parking spot we will be able to gain access to the storage and remove the fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir in the back of your premises with aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous private and business premises in Havering to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several drums in a storage shed, as long as we can access it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Out of fuel in Havering-atte-Bower (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a comprehensive Havering Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to refill your automobile in the event that you are stuck on the 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 correct fuel (at cost) to refill your car.
