It was just before 8 pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't given up on raining! Brian and I were sitting talking over the recent tennis results, waiting around for the 8th fuel drain for the day to arrive. Before long we had a call from a lady on a company trip who had gone to the Texaco filling garage in Forest Gate and filled petrol in her diesel Honda rental car. The unfortunate lady was very agitated by the sounds of it, saying "I still cannot believe I've messed up the car! I'm so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car that I had did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to worry, and that such things regrettably happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a safe area and, seeing that it was only a short distance from our van, we could arrive at her quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she was able to return to the hotel she was residing at.

AdBlue In Your Diesel
In Southwark we are finding an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree as a result of people being unsure of how to use it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to one another on the automobile.
Now, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.
If in case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained asap. And obviously be careful not to switch on the motor - not even to move it off the pump. In the event that you did start the car you would in all probability have to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters replaced.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question a significant condition to address in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel will often contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both cases fairly quickly.
Keep in mind however that whenever the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and ineffective.
Boat Fuel Drains
If you find you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}
Disposal of Waste Fuel
Have an old fuel tank laying in the rear of your premises with unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous private and commercial properties in Southwark to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few drums in a garage, as long as we can access it, we can drain it.
Out of Fuel Assistance
Run out of fuel in Forest Gate (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a full Southwark Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill your automobile in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill your automobile. They are also able to deal with any of the normal issues that may accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
Wrong Fuel Doctor Forest Gate - Forest Gate Fuel Rescue
I had a fantastic evening hiking on the weekend and was feeling satisfied the next morning as I set out to assist a young couple who were vacationing in Forest Gate. They broken down after adding petrol in their Kia, and were around half an hour's drive away. I emerged at their position and smiled to myself while I heard to the lady telling her husband off for being so silly. "Just how could you actually manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I wanted to explain that this problem goes on continuously in Southwark and that it's absolutely nothing to worry about, even so he all the same got an earful by his better half. Unfortunate guy. In any case, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave it some right fuel. While watching them drive away I waved goodbye and considered what my wife would say to me if ever I did the same thing... I would never ever hear the end of it!

Recent Fuel Drains in Forest Gate
Just a few of the more usual details we come across from our engineers in Forest Gate:
It must be horrible being stuck in a vehicle with the incorrect fuel halfway down the road. One of our last customers who filled her diesel car with petrol (Peugeot) in Forest Gate ran into precisely this kind of headache: "You probably know that I erroneously put unleaded in my diesel car like a perfect plonker. I was so troubled about it that I was actually in tears. But I didn't need to worry seeing that you were exceptional in sorting the problem out."
Wrong Fuel Assist Forest Gate - Forest Gate Vehicle Misfuel
A woman living in Forest Gate phoned us shortly after she had managed to get her wrong fuelled car to the office. She had filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Suzuki and, like countless prior to her, thought that she could just fill up her tank with diesel and it'd run fine. The vehicle was chugging and then it died when she got to the the front of her office. We quickly went to work on the fuel drain following her call and had it repaired within one hour while she was at work. She came out afterwards and thanked us saying, "I'm very relieved you sorted my car."
