AdBlue Contamination
All over Lewisham we are discovering progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mostly a result of drivers not knowing how to use it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to one another on the car.
Well, what's the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.
In the event that you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it at once. And absolutely do not crank the engine - not even to shift it off the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will probably have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a significant issue to deal with in an automobile - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel may well trigger idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both circumstances rather easily.
Be aware though that if the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one is going to be wholly water-logged and unusable.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to an automobile parking bay we are able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}
Waste Fuel Disposal
Have a fuel reservoir lying at the back of your premises full of old, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and business premises in Lewisham to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in a storage shed, if we can access it, we can drain it for you.

Petrol in Diesel Upper Clapton - Upper Clapton Fuel Drain
A couple weeks ago a driver contacted us when his Dacia died along a street in Upper Clapton. He had by mistake put petrol in the diesel vehicle and drove so far as the road before needing to pull up. It was yet in the early hours of the morning and our technician, who stays close by, arrived with him in about a quarter hour. We managed to remove the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel back in the car. "Thank you for your prompt response, particularly at 3 a.m., I really am grateful for it."

We got a call from a gentleman whose Mazda had broken down on a street because he put the wrong fuel in it. "I mixed up the pumps and pumped petrol instead of diesel in my car . You guys came out and resolved the issue when my car died." We purged the unleaded from the diesel tank and flushed the system thoroughly afterwards and the gentleman was able to carry on with his sheduled delivery.
Wrong Fuel in Car Upper Clapton - Upper Clapton Fuel Removal
A young lady from Upper Clapton with her kids in her diesel Mazda had put £45 of petrol at the Sainsburys filling station. She contacted us sobbing and genuinely distraught as she had never wrong fuelled before and didn't know what could happen to her car because of it. We reassured her that everything would be alright and that she would be back in action soon. When we arrived on scene she was still upset but while our engineer started work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she discovered that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't wrecked. She soon enough cheered up and was on the road again saying, "I simply can't believe my misfortune putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Especially with the children in the back."
Wrong Fuel Upper Clapton - Upper Clapton Petrol in Diesel
I'd had a perfect afternoon golfing on the weekend and felt contented the next working day as I was on the way to help a young family who were holidaying in Upper Clapton. They'd conked out after putting the wrong fuel into their Land Rover, and the car was close to half an hour's drive away. I showed up at their position and smirked while I listened to the wife berating her spouse for turning out to be so silly. "Precisely how could you conceivably find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I wanted to clarify that this situation occurs constantly in Lewisham and that it is nothing to be anxious about, nevertheless he all the same got an ear bashing by his wife. I felt sorry for the lad. In any case, I extracted the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the proper fuel. While watching them drive down the road I waved good bye and thought about what her indoors would do to me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I'd never hear the end of it!
