It was about 9 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! James and I were resting there talking over the weekend's sports rankings, at the ready for the seventh telephone call of the day to come in. Finally we received a call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had gone to the Shell petrol garage in Marks Gate and filled petrol in a diesel Kia hire car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was rather affected by the sounds of it, crying "I can not believe that I have wrecked the car! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I completely didn't remember I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to worry, also that such things unfortunately often happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a safe area and, seeing as it was only a few minutes away from us, we were able to get to the customer almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was removed and she was able to return to the motel she was residing at. Although we got extremely drenched, it was all worth it seeing her drive home contented and much less stressed. Another fuel drain in Barking and Dagenham done well in my opinion!

What a quality night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 am on a bright Wednesday and I was on my way to help an elder sweetheart after she put the wrong fuel in her diesel Skoda in Marks Gate. She informed us that she drove away from the filling station and was pulled up on a backwater road en route to visit her godchildren. I popped her location in the TomTom and was on-scene within an hour. I turned up at the destination and extracted the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. As I was working she said to me, "I am getting somewhat absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the car taking diesel since I had only just purchased it a few days back right after my former one, which I'd used for more than twenty years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I got the drain done and she gifted me a Murray mint and said thank you. What a lovely Barking and Dagenham lady!

The customer was thrilled and it hadn't cost him dealer prices to have the job professionally done.

Services We Offer:

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

AdBlue In your Fuel

What to do in the event that you?ve put Adblue in your Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a chemical made of a mix of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%).Adblue is definitely disastrous to your automobile's fuel system, specifically in cases where you run the engine with Adblue in the fuel tank. Once the engine has been started up the Adblue will be pushed into the fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, resulting in devastating and expensive damage to your automobile's fuel system.

In the event that you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained immediately. And obviously never switch on the car - not even to move it to a parking bay. In case you have started the car you will in all probability have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally an important matter to address in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Having water in the diesel or petrol can certainly bring about idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both situations fairly simply.

Bear in mind however that if the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will probably be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured near to a motor vehicle parking spot we can gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Got a fuel container lying in the back of the garden full of out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous domestic and commercial properties in Barking and Dagenham to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in a garage, providing we can get to it, we could certainly empty it.

A couple weeks ago a gentleman called us just after his Mazda broke down along a street in Marks Gate. He had inadvertently put petrol in the diesel motor and got so far as the street before being forced to pull up. It was still early in the day and our fuel drainer, who lives nearby, reached him in less than fifteen minutes. We were able to remove the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel yet again in the car.

It truly was what we call an unsociable time to be awake. It was close to 3am and nobody was around. It was fairly uneventful up to now, and Ryan and I were relaxing perusing a couple of old newspapers. That was an unusual tranquil hour in Barking and Dagenham. Actually it was that relaxing that the instant the telephone rang it made me start! The voice on the opposite end told me: "I have just completed my evening shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in a Porsche". We asked him to inform us where exactly the car was located and we left, getting to him in Marks Gate 30 minutes later. The contaminated fuel was taken out from the engine. He said thank you for getting there so rapidly. While we were going back to the office we spotted two young ladies at the edge of the street who seemed like they had a flat. So we stopped to change it, much to their delight.
