It was around seven pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and I were resting talking about the weekend's football, ready for the next telephone call to come in. Before long we had a call from a young lady on a company excursion who had arrived at the Esso petrol garage in Kentish Town and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Renault lease car in error. The unfortunate thing was rather troubled by the sounds of it, stating "I just can't believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I am just so used to filling my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember I was running a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that things like this regrettably happen. She managed to move the vehicle to a protected spot and, as it was only a few miles away from us, we were able to find the woman quickly. The incorrect fuel was removed and she could go home to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Although we got extremely wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive away calm and less concerned. A job in Camden done well in my books!

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

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Camden we are finding more and more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a result of people not understanding how to use it (important: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to each other on the automobile.

Well, what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is actually just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And most certainly take care not to switch on the car - not even to move it from the pump. In the event that you did start the car you would in all probability need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant issue to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol can potentially trigger idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out when compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both situations rather easily.

Remember that as long as the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel container lying at the back of your garden full of unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous domestic and industrial properties in Camden for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a number of containers in a shed, as long as we are able to reach it, we could certainly empty it.

Run out of fuel in Kentish Town (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a complete Camden Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to refill your automobile any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) and refill the car.

A gentleman had stopped just off a street in Kentish Town. His Toyota motor had ceased running and he had no clue what was the problem until he realised he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle. He phoned us to request a fuel drain and that is when he told us: "I can't believe that I didn't comprehend that I put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had gotten zero rest the evening before and that must have been the reason.
