It was just after ten pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ryan and me were sitting going over the weekend's golf results, ready for the next telephone call of the day to come in. Eventually we received the phone call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had gone to the BP filling station in Leatherhead Common and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Peugeot rental car. She was rather irritated apparently, stating "I simply cannot believe that I've messed up the car! I'm so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember that I was using a diesel!" We advised her to take it easy and not to worry, and that such things happen. She managed to move the car into a safe space and, because it was just a few miles off from where we were, we could arrive at her rather quickly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could return to the motel she was lodging in. Although we got really soaked, it was all worthwhile to see her drive home calm and much less worried. One more fuel drain in Kensington and Chelsea done well in my mind!

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we provide.
AdBlue In Diesel
All over Kensington and Chelsea we have seen increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of drivers not being aware of the way to to make use of (pay attention: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to each other on the automobile.
Now, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.
In the event that you get in this situation don?t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our experts have the technical expertise and experience to get you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally an important matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel will often bring about idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both cases rather swiftly.
Take note though that if the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.
Motorboat Fuel Drains

Recent Fuel Drains in Leatherhead Common
Usual fuel drain stories in Leatherhead Common:
I wouldn't like being stuck in a automobile filled with the incorrect fuel halfway down the road. One of our most recent customers who put contaminated fuel in her car (Ford) in Leatherhead Common suffered literally that problem: "Unfortunately I erroneously filled my petrol car with diesel last week. I was so stressed about it that I was in tears. But I didn't need to worry as you were brilliant in dealing with the problem."
Fuel Drain Leatherhead Common - Leatherhead Common Wrong Fuel in Car
A customer from Leatherhead Common with a full car of youngsters in her diesel Mercedes had put £42 of petrol at the station. She contacted us crying and extremely distraught as she had never put petrol in a diesel before and did not know what would happen to her car because of it. We told her that the vehicle should be okay and that she would be back ready to go soon. When we arrived she was visible upset but while our technician started work on the fuel drain she simmered down since she discovered that something could be done and her car wasn't wrecked. She soon enough brightened up and was on the road again saying, "I can't believe my luck putting petrol in my diesel car! Especially with the kids on board."
