It was close to eight pm on a Saturday and although we were guaranteed a dry night, it had not ceased raining! Ray and I were seated discussing the football results, waiting for the next job for the day to come in. In due time we had the call from a lady on a business trip who had pulled into the BP filling station in Perivale and put the wrong fuel in her diesel SEAT hire car. The unfortunate thing was pretty distressed apparently, crying "I still cannot believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I had forgot that I was running a diesel!" We instructed her to calm down and not to worry, plus that things like this unfortunately happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle into a secure space and, seeing as it was only a short distance off from our van, we could find the customer swiftly. The incorrect fuel was taken out and she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was living at. Despite the fact we got fairly wet, it was all worth the effort to see her drive off satisfied and a lot less stressed. Another fuel drain in Ealing done well in my books!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Ealing we are discovering increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to drivers not knowing the right way to work with it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to one another on the automobile.

So, what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In case you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out immediately. And most definitely never start up the engine - not even to shift it into a parking bay. If you have started the vehicle you may very likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, can be an important condition to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel tank will often trigger idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both cases rather expediently.

Be aware that whenever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will be completely wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to access the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container at the back of your premises containing unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and commercial properties in Ealing to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a garage, providing we can get to it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Perivale (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a comprehensive Ealing Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill your vehicle if you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill up your car or truck. They can also deal with the common problems which might accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even flat batteries due to over-cranking.
