Below are our top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Camden we have identified increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mainly a result of drivers not being totally sure how to work with it (be aware: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to one another on the automobile.

Well, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing that the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it right away. And most certainly don't turn over the engine - not even to shift it from the pump. In case you did start the car you would almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in fuel will often produce idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both circumstances pretty quickly.

Bear in mind though that if ever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will likely be thoroughly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we can reach the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel tank laying at the rear of the garden containing old, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and commercial premises in Camden for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several drums in a storage shed, assuming that we can reach it, we could certainly empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Rotherhithe (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete Camden Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to fill up your vehicle in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at cost) and refill your vehicle. They will fix the standard troubles that could go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Rotherhithe - Rotherhithe Fuel Drain

I had enjoyed a wonderful day cycling during my day off and felt contented with myself the next morning as I set out to aid a young family who were vacationing in Rotherhithe. They pulled over after filling diesel into their Vauxhall, and were around half an hour's drive away. I got there at their position and smirked while I listened to the girl berating her partner for being so confused. "Just how could you actually be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I wanted to clarify that this comes to pass regularly in Camden and that it's truly nothing at all to be concerned about, nonetheless he yet still got an ear bashing. Poor boy. Anyway, I drained out all the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and gave them some appropriate fuel. While they drove off I mouthed bon voyage and wondered what my wife would tell me if perhaps I did the same thing... I'd under no circumstances live it down!
