It was just after 8 pm on a Thursday and while we were assured a rainless evening, it had not given up on pouring! Mark and me were resting there talking about the recent football, prepared for the 6th telephone call that day to arrive. Before long we had a call from a woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the Tesco petrol garage in The City and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Suzuki rental car in error. The unfortunate thing was rather irritated it seemed, saying "I can't believe that I've wrecked the car! I'm just so familiar with filling my petrol car I completely didn't remember I was using a diesel!" We advised her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that these things regrettably often happen. She managed to get the car into a protected spot and, seeing that it was just a few miles off from our van, we were able to arrive at her rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she could get back to the Travelodge she was staying at. Despite the fact we got very drenched, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive home contented and not so anxious. One more misfuel correction in Lewisham done well in my mind!

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Lewisham we have identified more and more instances of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is in part a result of drivers being unsure of the way to to make use of (be aware: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to one another on the car.

Well, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Any time you end up in this scenario do not panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our experts possess the practical competence and experience to have you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, can be a significant situation to handle in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water in fuel will trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of fully, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both cases quite simply.

Take note however that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will likely be totally water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to an automobile parking bay we are able to reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container placed at the back of the garden containing old, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial properties in Lewisham to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even several drums in a garage, provided that we can reach it, we can empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in The City (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a full Lewisham Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to re-fill your vehicle in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at cost) and fill the car. They will deal with the common issues which may go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car The City - The City Fuel Removal

A guy had conked out off a road in The City. His Honda engine had ceased operating and he'd no idea what was wrong right up until he realised he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car. He phoned us to request a fuel drain and that's when he told us: "I can not believe that I didn't know that I had put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had gotten no sleep the day before and that could have been the reason.
