It was before 7 pm on a Wednesday and although we were assured a rainless afternoon, it hadn't ceased raining! Brian and I were relaxing discussing the rugby rankings, waiting around for the 8th call for the day to come in. Finally we had the phone call from a lovely women on a business trip who had arrived at the BP filling garage in New Beckenham and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Lexus rental. She was somewhat troubled apparently, telling me "I cannot believe I have messed up the vehicle! I am just so used to filling up my petrol car I completely forgot I was operating a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to worry, and that such things happen. She was able to move the car to a protected position and, seeing that it was just a few minutes from us, we could reach her swiftly. The incorrect fuel was removed and she was able to go home to the motel she was lodging in. Although we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away contented and a lot less apprehensive. Yet another misfuel correction in Bromley well done in my books!

Fuel Rescue New Beckenham - New Beckenham Vehicle Misfuel
Just had a quality night of sleep! It was 7:30 am on a warm Tuesday and we were on my way to assist an old lady after she put petrol in her diesel Volvo in New Beckenham. She told us that she had left the petrol station and was pulled up along a backwater road en route to see her grandchildren. I got the location punched straight into the TomTom and was with her inside an hour or so. I reached the car and removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle. Whilst I was doing it she said, "I am getting somewhat forgetful in my old age and forgot about the vehicle working with diesel since I had just got it a couple of days back after my other car, which I'd used for over twenty years, finally gave up the ghost". I finished the job and she presented me a Murray mint and said thanks. Such a precious Bromley woman!

AdBlue Contamination
Throughout Bromley we are finding progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mostly caused by people not knowing how to work with it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to one another on the car.
So, what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As the product is mostly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.
In the event that you end up in this predicament don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination business. Our experts possess the technical knowledge and working experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant situation to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank is likely to result in idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of fully, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both circumstances very quickly.
Remember though that in the event that the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one is going to be wholly water-logged and unusable.
Marine Fuel Drains

We have performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Fuel Rescue New Beckenham - New Beckenham Petrol in Diesel
It truly was what we call the night shift. It was around 2:30am and noone was around. It had been fairly uneventful up to now, and Paul and I were relaxing browsing a number of old newspapers. This was an uncommon calm moment in Bromley. Actually it was indeed so tranquil that when my mobile eventually rang it made me jump! The customer explained: "I have only just concluded my night shift and stupidly put petrol in the Volkswagen in error". We asked him to inform us where he was situated and we headed out, getting to him in New Beckenham an hour later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed from the engine and he said thanks for coming out so promptly. As we were returning home we spotted two ladies on the side of the road who looked like they had a flat tyre. Accordingly we pulled up to change it, much to their elation.
