It was about 7 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless day, it had not given up on raining! Ray and I were relaxing there talking about the recent rugby results, prepared for the 8th telephone call that day to come in. Before long we had a call from a girl on a company trip who had gone to the Shell petrol garage in Gravesend and filled petrol in a diesel Volvo lease car in error. The poor lady was fairly agitated apparently, saying "I cannot believe that I've destroyed the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I totally forgot I was running a diesel!" I asked her to relax and not to fret, also that such things unfortunately do happen. She managed to move the vehicle to a secure position and, since it was no more than a few miles from where we were, we could get to the lady without delay. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was residing at. Although we got thoroughly drenched, it was all rewarding to watch her drive off calm and less worried. Another job in Newham done well in my opinion!

We can assist you with these mis-fuel mistakes.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Newham we are encountering progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a driver has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent thanks to drivers being unsure of the right way to work with it (remember: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right near to each other on the car.

Now, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call if it turns out you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to correct different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally a serious situation to deal with in an automobile - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel may well contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both cases rather expediently.

Be aware however that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will be totally wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to parking spot we are able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir placed in the rear of your premises with unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and business premises in Newham to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps several containers in an outbuilding, as long as we can access it, we can empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Gravesend (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a complete Newham Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to fill up your car any time you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump prices) and refill your car. They will take care of any of the normal problems which can go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

A while back a man telephoned us because his BMW broke down along a road in Gravesend.
