We're only a telephone call away.

It was about 6 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless afternoon, it had not given up on raining! Dan and I were relaxing talking about the weekend's tennis rankings, prepared for the sixth job that day to come in. In due time we received a call from a girl on a company trip who had pulled into the Tesco petrol station in Kilburn and filled petrol in a diesel MINI hire car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was quite irritated it seemed, crying "I cannot believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm so used to filling my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I asked her to relax and not to fret, and also that things like this sadly often happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle to a secure space and, since it was no more than a few miles away from us, we could reach the lady right away. The incorrect fuel was taken out and she could get back to the motel she was staying in. Although we got fairly wet, it was all worth it to watch her drive home satisfied and not so stressed. Another job in Brent well done in my opinion!

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Brent we have found more and more cases of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly caused by people not knowing the right way to work with it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly next to each other on the car.

Well, exactly what is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it at once. And absolutely do not crank the motor - not even to move it into a parking area. In the event that you have started the vehicle you will likely need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the petrol or diesel is going to contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both circumstances pretty easily.

Be aware however that if ever the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will probably be totally wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to an automobile parking bay we can gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank laying at the rear of the garden full of unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial properties in Brent to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several drums in an outbuilding, providing we are able to access it, we can drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Kilburn (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a full Brent Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill your vehicle any time you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) to refill your automobile. They can also handle any of the typical troubles which could accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Kilburn - Kilburn Wrong Fuel

A guy had stopped off a road in Kilburn. His Honda motor had stopped running and he had no idea what was the problem till he realised he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He contacted us to request a fuel drain and that's when he said to us: "I can not believe that I did not detect that I put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He stated that he had gotten absolutely no rest the evening before and that must have been the reason why.
