It was after 9 pm on a Thursday and while we were promised a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! James and me were resting going over the recent tennis, prepared for the 6th job for the day to arrive. Inevitably we got the call from a lovely women on a company trip who had gone to the Esso petrol garage in Locksbottom and put petrol in her diesel Chevrolet rental by mistake. She was quite affected it seemed, stating "I can not believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I had forgot that I was using a diesel!" We told her to settle back and not to worry, also that things like this unfortunately can happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a protected spot and, since it was no more than a short distance away from the office, we could get to the customer without delay. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she was able to get back to the motel she was staying at. Even though we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive off calm and less stressed. Another fuel drain in Bromley well done in my opinion!

Services We Offer:
Listed below are our top services we deliver to our clients.
AdBlue Contamination
Throughout Bromley we have seen an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly a result of people not being totally sure the way to to make use of (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to one another on the automobile.
Now, what's the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing as the product is mainly deionised water, it's as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.
Contact us if it turns out you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will attend to all types of AdBlue contamination.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be a serious matter to deal with in an automobile - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in your petrol or diesel will often cause idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out than water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both situations very quickly.
Bear in mind though that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.
Boat Fuel Drains
If you find there is the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a car parking spot we will be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Got a fuel container placed at the rear of your garden full of aged, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and business premises in Bromley to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or even some containers in a storage shed, providing we are able to access it, we can empty it for you.

Wrong Fuel Drain Locksbottom - Locksbottom Wrong Fuel in Car
Ahhh, that was a fantastic night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 am on a warm Sunday and I was en route to help an elder woman after she put the wrong fuel in her diesel Lexus in Locksbottom. I had been told she had left the filling station forecourt and was pulled up along a backwater lane on route to visit her family. I plugged her location in the TomTom and arrived inside an hour. I got to the stricken lady and removed the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. While I was doing the work she told me, "Now I'm getting somewhat absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the car working with diesel as I had just got it a short while back when my former one, which I had for more than 30 years, inevitably broke down". I completed the drain and she presented me a peppermint and thanked me for my work. What a precious Bromley lady!

Wrong Fuel Drain Locksbottom - Locksbottom Fuel Drain
A motorist working in Locksbottom called us shortly after she had tried to get her misfueled vehicle to work. She had put the wrong fuel in her diesel MG and, like many people prior to her, imagined that she could basically top up her car with diesel and it would run fine. The vehicle was chugging and then it cut out when she came to the entrance of her office. We quickly went to work on the fuel drain following her call and got it sorted in an hour while she was working. She came outside later on and thanked us stating, "I'm really happy you sorted my vehicle."
