It was around 9 pm on a Thursday and while we were promised a dry day, it hadn't given up on raining! Brian and me were relaxing there discussing the recent footy rankings, waiting for the seventh call of the day to arrive. Before long we got a call from a lady on a business excursion who had arrived at the Esso filling station in Wimbledon and filled petrol in a diesel Porsche lease car in error. The poor lady was pretty affected apparently, crying "I still can't believe that I've messed up the car! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot that I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to take it easy and not to fret, also that these things happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle into a protected area and, as it was only a few minutes off from where we were, we were able to arrive at the lady right away. The bad fuel was removed so she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was living in. Even though we got extremely drenched, it was all worth the time to see her drive away contented and a lot less stressed. Another fuel drain in Merton done well in my books!

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Merton we are noticing a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to some extent caused by drivers not being totally sure the way to to make use of (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to each other on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing as the product is mostly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call if you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to fix different types of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a serious matter to deal with in an automobile - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel may contribute to idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied effectively, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both cases quite simply.

Be aware though that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to parking bay we are able to access the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

We've been called out to numerous privately owned and business properties in Merton to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to access it, we are able to empty it.

Out of fuel in Wimbledon (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a complete Merton Out of Fuel Service. We will come to fill up your automobile any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill your vehicle.

Vehicle Misfuel Wimbledon - Wimbledon Fuel Rescue

Last week a motorist contacted us because his Mazda cut out in the middle of a road in Wimbledon. He had by mistake put unleaded in the diesel motor and drove so far as the street before needing to stop. It was yet in the early hours of the day and our technician, who resides nearby, arrived with him in approximately twenty minutes. We managed to take out the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel yet again in to the vehicle. "Thank you for your immediate response, particularly at 2 a.m., I truly am grateful for it."
